In pictures - how sport's return has been greeted across Sussex

Sport is back in earnest this week - and active types across Sussex have been taking full advantage.

Monday was the first day outdoor sport was permitted again as lockdown restrictions began to be lifted. And sporty people wasted no time at all in getting back into action. As our pictures show, people have been playing a wide range of sports - including tennis, golf and croquet - just because they can. So many people have missed sport and found the latest lockdown tough. Well now we need miss it no more, and with football, cricket, rugby and other sports on the way back too, this is just the start. If you or your club have been back in action let us know - email details and pictures to [email protected]
