Five-a-side football fans could return to the pitch as early as next month, with gyms and leisure centres also set to reopen, the Culture Secretary has signalled. Oliver Dowden said he understood the public are 'itching' to resume their amateur sport and fitness routines, as Premier League football returned this evening for the first time since the coronavirus outbreak. 'Sports recovery is never just about elite sports,' he told the daily Downing Street briefing. The NHBF has also urged customers not to bring coats or jackets into salons and encouraged salons to put out a slotted container for tips. The chain said an expanded range of outdoor activities was being introduced at 50 of its fitness clubs in the UK.
