BAFA rule adjustments for COVID-19

As of 1st April 2022, all temporary rules and officiating adjustments for COVID-19 have been withdrawn.

COVID is still a risk and people should take appropriate precautions to safeguard their own and others' safety, but there is no longer a need for us as a sport to regulate that.
