The result of the findings reveals that; Covid-19 widespread had a tremendous effect on personal and group sports activities, sport organizations also suffered the global spread of covid-19 and resourceful sports competitions were also shut down as a result of Covid-19 outbreak. Based on the findings, the researcher opined that athletes’ on-field own risky behaviours and should be avoided to minimize unnecessary infection as close contact with others is unavoidable during contact sports. And more so, the decision to resume sporting events should correlate to the local number of cases and strict infection measures will need to be implemented at the early phases of resumption. Lastly, exercise with a face-mask definitely has a toll on the human body and it is advised to adjust the exercise intensity when masked.
