read moreLismore City Council has advised that the popular Lismore Workers Masters Games scheduled to run from 24th to 26th September has been postponed until next year due to COVID-19.
The 12th Lismore Workers Games was to attract participants and spectators from across the country. It will now be held on 23rd to 25th September 2022.
The Lismore Workers Masters Games is a bi-annual event that first commenced in 1999. The event provides competitors and social participants with a friendly and unique sporting experience and a wonderful chance to experience Lismore and the Northern Rivers region.
Lismore City Council’s Manager of Liveable and Active Communities Tony Duffy said Council and the Games’ Organising Committee made the decision to protect the community from the spread of COVID-19.
Duffy notes “we understand the community’s disappointment, but the safety of our community always come first. With the COVID-19 situation changing almost daily, we decided to err of the side of caution.”
Chairman of the Masters Games organising committee Matthew Barlow added “It was a tough decision to make but we believe it was the right decision. The health and safety of our community was at the forefront of our discussions.
"The economic impact the event brings to the region is significant so rather than cancel the event and look towards 2023, we have decided to postpone for 12 months.”
"I would like to thank the sponsors, staff, committee and convenors for their efforts in the preparation and planning of the event and we will be back bigger and better in 2022.”
