Non-vaccinated junior golfers aged below 17 can play golf in states under Phase 1 of the National Recovery Plan (NRP), but only with their fully-vaccinated parents or guardians.
The Malaysian Golf Association (MGA) confirmed this today in its updated Mandatory Standard Operating Procedures (MSOPs) for golf clubs located in Phase 1 states.
In a cover note accompanying the new MSOPs. the MGA noted: “Please be informed that under-17 golfers are allowed to play provided they are accompanied by FULLY VACCINATED parents and/or guardians. Please be further informed that under-17 golfers cannot join non-family member’s flight.”
The updated MSOPs also allow golf clubs and driving ranges to operate at 60% of their capacity, compared to the previous 50%.
