Hello ProKickers, We hope you are all keeping safe and well, through these difficult times. During lock-down we were closed for 18 weeks; Prokick. We missed you all, along with the buzz about the gym. We reopened on July 14th, however, we want to keep you updated with our plans and measures which we have put in place for the return to classes at ProKick.
Please be assured for the re-opening at ProKick we have taken every safety precaution for the well-being of all our members before the doors open: Billy Murray & Team
The return to the ProKick Gym - The resumption of contact sports is on stage 5 of the NI Assembly’s road map for coming out of lockdown. However, we can still train safely at ProKick without the contact, please see below our plans.
- The gym has been cleared out of all unessential equipment.
- Members will enter the gym through reception ready to train, removing shoes and keeping all personal belongings in their own kit bags or storage bags will be provided.
- There will no longer be any sharing permitted of equipment I.e. no borrowing of gloves, head guards, pads, water bottles etc.
- Once your class is finished you will exit through the back of the gym (emergency exit to rear of ring).
- A 15 minute change over slot will be in place to allow the area to be sanitised before the next class.
- Smaller numbers in classes - We plan to restrict the numbers to 12 per class to start off with (this will be in line with social distancing and will only change depending on government guidelines).
- Classes will need to pre booked online.
- Hand sanitiser and disinfectant wipes will be available and everyone will be required to use upon entering the gym.
- We have daily deep disinfectant spraying for the entire building to commence prior to opening hours.
- Here is the schedule for the return to classes at ProKick
Bag Classes - we have rehung a selection of bags for boxing & kicking drills for practise - this will be the only contact permitted until we are notified by the Government.
Kids Classes - We will be operating again in smaller numbers for children. You child's class times have changed as we plan to have 3 kids classes instead of 2 on a Saturday morning. More information on KIDS classes here.
