No Chanting To Be Allowed At Tokyo 2020

Tuesday, 2 February 2021 13:37

That's according to Tokyo 2020 president Yoshiro Mori.

Tokyo 2020 President Yoshiro Mori insists this summer's Olympics will go ahead "regardless" of what the coronavirus situation is.

Parts of Japan are in a state of emergency after a spike in the number of cases and the games have already been postponed by 12 months.

No chanting or singing will be allowed at the games however.

It's one of the rules published in the first of several 'playbooks' that organisers will send to those attending the event.

Athletes will also have the amount of time they can spend in the village restricted.

Twice in the last 10 days officials have insisted the Games will go ahead and won't be postponed for a second time.
