Combat sports, including judo, boxing and karate, are now allowed in France as before covid-19, in "territories out of the health emergency", issued a decree published in the Official Journal on Saturday.
Only Mayotte and Guyana, still in a state of health emergency, therefore remain deprived of combat sports.
Call for caution
Despite the progressive deconfinement, combat sports had remained plunged into great uncertainty since May 11 and considered themselves subjected to a double penalty with the cessation of competitions and the prohibition of contacts in training.
As of today, in territories emerging from the state of emergency, the practice of all sports, including combat sports, is now authorized. Good news that should not prevent us from remaining cautious and responsible đź‘Ť @ jmblanquer
