CORONAVIRUS - ( COVID - 19) - IMPORTANT UPDATE
***UPDATED 26 FEBRUARY 2021***
HOVER FORCE TO REOPEN ON 29TH MARCH 2021
THE GOVERNMENT HAS ANNOUNCED THE ROAD MAP FOR THE END OF LOCKDOWN.
"The Government will also allow outdoor sports facilities to reopen, broadening the options for outdoor exercise and recreation. These facilities, such as tennis and basketball courts, and swimming pools, can be used by people in line with the wider social contact limits. Formally organised outdoor sports – for adults and under 18s - can also restart and will not be subject to the gatherings limits, but should be compliant with guidance issued by national governing bodies."
(Extract from COVID-19 RESPONSE − SPRING 2021 Presented to Parliament by the Prime Minister by Command of Her Majesty February 2021)
HOVER FORCE IS AN ORGANISER OF OUTDOOR SPORTING EVENTS AND WILL REOPEN FROM 29TH MARCH.
FROM 29th MARCH - All our outdoor sporting activities will be available. Some limitations will be imposed to limit the potential for spreading of the virus. There will be no mixing of separate bookings but there will also be no imposed limits on individual booking sizes. The activities already have booking limitations that are below those recommended by the Government. Customers will still be expected to comply with any rules affecting their circumstances in terms of travel and other arrangements.
WHAT HAPPENS TO MY BOOKING?
Any booking that has been postponed due to the Government Restrictions can now be rebooked to suit your new arrangements. Your original payment/ deposit/ voucher will be carried forward or extended where necessary to allow this.
Your plans may have changed and as such we are still permitting postponement to suit your new plans without restrictions or penalty. We simply ask you give us as much warning as possible.
Please remember that yours and our safety come first and there will be some limitations on activities and or sequencing of multiple activity events in accordance with following the Governments guidance. Please email your booking requests to info@hoverforce.co.uk or contact the events team on 01928240444 for assistance.
WHAT HAPPENS TO MY GIFT VOUCHER?
Any unused vouchers that were valid at the time of the first lockdown closure on 20th March have been extended by 9 months. Any Booked vouchers that have had the event cancelled due to lockdown are reinstated and where applicable the voucher end date has been extended. This only applies to 12 month vouchers and does not apply to the latest vouchers which have all been issued as 2 year validity.
WHAT WE ARE DOING TO PROTECT YOU?
- All event bookings are treated as separate events.
- All Buildings are closed to the public while Governement Regulations are in force. Outdoor open sided weather shelters have been erected but be prepared and bring appropriate clothing/footwear for the weather as the activities are all outdoor.
- We are running less event options at the moment to permit time for cleaning down the equipment between bookings.
- We are restricting the number of people on site.
- We have added multiple outdoor hand wash facilities.
- We have closed the main toilets and are using only the outdoor portable toilets which are jetwashed.
CAN I MAKE A GROUP BOOKING?

All our sports activities have limits on the number of customers we can handle at a time and these are consistent with sporting activities.
