But given that gyms are looking to be open again in July, all sorts of facilities seem to be re-opening, a lot of sports re-starting, social distancing seems to be a case of do as you please... you'd like to think that the athletic powers-that-be were lobbying hard to get training/competition back up and running (pardon the pun) within some kind of reasonable timescale...
They would have problems. Many T&F officials will not be able to attend due to age/shielding. How do you get 5-6 timekeepers on a set of steps? Sanitary facilities would have issues as well.

and as for them wanting it, there is a lot of frustration with EA at the moment among grass roots. Taking the EA affiliation fees, so they don't need revenue, so what's in it for them in opening up the grass roots?
