Question: What are the requirements for the attendance of athletes who are competing in events?

Answer passage (source: WHO):
page_title: Q&A: Mass gatherings and COVID-19
section_headers: What should be the criteria for excluding an athlete or other accredited participant from competing?
section_content: Agreed health criteria are needed for the exclusion of athletes from competing
and for allowing them to return to competition wherever appropriate. These
should be consistent with public health guidelines for the general population,
with risk profiles based on recent travel to high-risk community transmission
zones, recent contact with individuals diagnosed with or suspected of having
COVID-19, current symptomatology, etc. Athletes who are feeling unwell should
not participate in events.
If testing of athletes has been agreed with the local public health service
there is a need to consider test availability, time taken for receipt of test
results and host-country health services capacity.
Criteria for exclusion of officials/judges from competition and for allowing
them to return to competition where appropriate should follow guidance and
criteria for the workplace.
Requirements for the attendance of all athletes and other accredited
participants should be put in place:
– health check: travel declaration and temperature screening
– contact tracing protocols ready (with all details of those present)
– allowing extra spacing (physical distancing)
– following all hygiene precautions.
Isolation procedures for athletes and other accredited participants (e.g.
field-of-play staff, medical teams, officials who have close contact with the
athletes) who feel unwell or become symptomatic should be clear and documented
and rehearsed prior to holding the event, especially for higher risk sports,
e.g. contact sports.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
All requirements are outlined clearly for the attendance of athletes at sporting events as well as isolation procedures.
Provides fairly detailed guidance about health standards for athletes to compete.

Answer passage (source: WHO):
page_title: Q&A: Mass gatherings and COVID-19
section_headers: Are there additional safeguards event organizers can implement or recommend to athletes/officials/visitors in the context of COVID-19?
section_content: Follow standard preventative advice to the general public, including physical
distancing, in the athletes’ village.
Also promote:

signage, digital messaging to all participants and their entourages about COVID-19 and how to prevent infection
regular disinfection and cleaning of surfaces, in venues and in personal spaces 
non-sharing of equipment and cleaning of equipment after each user.

Organizers are recommended to develop a checklist (include hand gels stations,
hygiene facilities, etc.). See the event mitigation recommendations checklist
for event organizers above.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
Answer is in regards to what the general public needs to do within the athletes' village and not does not address the requirements the athletes themselves must meet.
has advice about social distancing in athletes' villages but doesn't discuss what health standards athletes need to meet to compete.

Answer passage (source: WHO):
page_title: Q&A: Mass gatherings and COVID-19
section_headers: Should event organizers arrange screening at venues beyond national government requirements for point of entry (PoE)?
section_content: Temperature screening alone, at exit or entry, is not an effective way to stop
international spread, since infected individuals may be in incubation period,
may not express apparent symptoms early on in the course of the disease, or
may dissimulate fever through the use of antipyretics; in addition, such
measures require substantial investments for what may bear little benefits. It
is more effective to provide prevention recommendation messages to travellers
and to collect health declarations at arrival, with travellers’ contact
details, to allow for a proper risk assessment and a possible contact tracing
of incoming
travellers.
Event organizers should also consider the capacity to undertake this and the
management of suspected cases. However, sporting organizations may have
criteria for participation that are stricter than government requirements for
Ports of Entry into the country that are based on event risk assessment,
including organizers' healthcare capacity.
Any additional screening questionnaires for participation in events need to be
aligned with public health agencies in the jurisdiction. There is a need to
consider how to manage different groups – athletes, officials and spectators,
and the large numbers of individuals likely to arrive at a sporting event from
many oversea countries – and to follow both host country and WHO travel
advice and to
assess whether there is difficulty in obtaining accurate information about the
travel history of those individuals.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
Discusses screening measures necessary for all attendees at athletic events, including athletes.
While athletes could be traveling internationally or meeting with other athletes who have traveled from another country, this answer does not address what athletes specifically need to do. "Event" could be any one thing, like a convention or a sporting event.
