Novel-Coronavirus: Asia open + CASNCC Events Updates

After conducting a survey, we have collated the responses and vast majority have feedback against the postponement of Asia Open + CASNCC.

As such, we would like to announce that Asia Open + CASNCC 2020 will NOT be postponed and will proceed as usual on 4th and 5th April.

Safety and health of our participants and spectators remain our top priority and the following precautionary measures will be in place during the event.

Temperature Screening
All participants and spectators will be required to undergo screening before entry/re-entry into the venue.

At temperature taking stations, those with any/combination of the following symptoms will be denied entry into the venue:

  1. Fever
  2. Runny nose
  3. teary eyes
  4. cough
  5. shortness of breath

For individuals with temperature 37.6 degree celsius and above, they will be advised to rest for 10 minutes before re-taking temperature. If temperature remains 37.6 and above after re-measurement, individuals will be advised to go home/hotel and/or seek medical attention.

Participants who are denied entry will not be allowed to participate in the competition. There will be no refund for the competition fees.

There will be no refund for entry ticket holders who are denied entry. 

We urge everyone to practice social responsibility to help prevent the spread of the virus.

Travel History and Health  Declaration
All participants and spectators will be required to fill in a travel and health declaration form before temperature screening. The personal contact information collected will remain confidential and will be submitted to the Singapore government should it be required for contact tracing. Participants’ travel and health information will be submitted under their organization during registration on Friday. All information declared in the form must be accurate. Any false declarations may result in persecution under the Infectious Diseases Act.

Recent visitors to China to refrain from attending the event
In view of the viral transmission of Covid-19, all participants/spectators who have returned from China within the last 14 days will not be allowed entry into the venue.

Hand Sanitizers
Hand sanitizers will be available at the temperature taking stations in the foyer.

Registration and Restricted Entry during Rehearsals
For rehearsals on Friday, 3rd April, only registered coaches,  participants, and registered chaperones are allowed entry into the venue. The registration of teams will take place on Friday. Teams who have scheduled rehearsals are advised to arrive early to process your registration to obtain event IDs. Individuals with no event IDs are not permitted to enter the venue on Friday.

Increased Frequency in Cleaning
The venue operators will be increasing the frequency in the cleaning of the venue. 

Toilet Facilities
Due to the layout of the community auditorium (competition venue),  access to toilet facilities within the venue will be available to the participants and event staff ONLY. This is to limit contact between the participants and spectators, creating a participants-access only zone. Spectators are to use the toilet facilities located OUTSIDE the auditorium.

The above measures will cause inconveniences but we urge everyone to cooperate with our staff to ensure the health and safety of all the event attendees.
