On a playing field
Sportsmen and sportswomen as well as spectators are highly at risk during a thun-
derstorm if they stand on the playing field, uncovered stands or next to poles or
flagpoles. Keep at least 1 m, or even better 3 m away from poles. Covered stands
need a lightning protection system on the roof to provide safety.
Note!
Keep at least 3 m away from radio masts and flagpoles. Put down flags,
umbrellas and golf clubs.
