‘Further be guided that we will be sharing guidelines from the medical committee prior to resumption of games,’ Shikabeta said.
‘Note that league games will start on 28 August with week 9 games and end on 2 October 2021, and as such clubs are directed to resume training in preparation for resumption of games,’ he said.
