Almost all articles described multi-layered intervention packages including bubble approaches, routine testing, country entry screening, masking, physical distancing and\/or isolation and quarantine. Based on an effectiveness framework developed for this study, 23 articles described effective intervention packages, three described non-effective packages and six were indeterminate. Feasibility concerns appeared a challenge for MGs with many spectators and linked to scalability issues. Acceptability factors were likely influenced by perceptions of increased work burden, compliance levels and stakeholder engagement.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
