Norwich City have announced that mandatory COVID passes are to be scrapped at home games.

Fans who are looking to come to the club's ground at Carrow Road will not be required to the show proof of their immunization ahead of their Premier League clash with Crystal Palace tonight.

The change in guidance at the club comes as the UK government's "Covid Plan B" for winter, which made the showing of COVID passports mandatory, ended at the end of January.

But the football club is still advocating for social distancing measures, including the recommendation to wear a face covering at the games.

Other advice that the club are giving fans includes the constant washing and sanitizing of hands, as well as telling those with COVID-19 symptoms not to attend the venue.

The club are also recommending that fans coming to Carrow Road should give themselves peace of mind by taking a lateral flow test before attending future matches.

However, Norwich City are still directing fans to follow the respective rules when coming along to away games.
