Following the postponement of the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan until 2021, organisers have released an update on requirements athletes must meet before being able to take part in the games.

The requirements include taking a COVID-19 test before and on arrival in Japan, submitting an activity plan during the stay in Japan, and potentially living in an athletes-only COVID-19 bubble for the event.

Tokyo officials still plan to hold the postponed games in 2021, but warn that the event will be simpler than in previous years, focused on allowing athletes the chance to compete.
