A total of 84 athletes from 12 federations were finally included in the list of those exempted from the ban on training in sports facilities, because they are preparing for their participation or qualification for the Tokyo Olympic Games. Following a request from the General Secretariat and the submission of proposals by federations, the Hellenic Olympic Preparation Committee, chaired by Spyros Zannias, prepared the relevant list, which was sent to the Secretary General of Sports, Giorgos Mavrotas.
Athletics has the lion's share with 34 athletes, followed by rowing with 11 and sailing with seven (which, however, do not include Mantis-Kagialis, nor Vasileia Karachalio). It is noted that several federations, most notably the KOE, did not send proposals for the list, to which additions and subtractions may be made through the same procedure.

In order to implement this provision, the primary criterion is the health of the athletes-coaches-employees at the facilities. The facilities are recommended to operate with the minimum required personnel (security personnel), in a manner that ensures smooth operation for the specific use. The instructions of the Hellenic National Sports Organization (E.O.D.Y.) and the respective government announcements must also be strictly and strictly observed.
