A CLG Cloich Cheann Fhaola player reported positive symptoms for Covid-19 on his Health Questionaire on Saturday July 25th. The club are taking all necessary precautions and are proceeding as per GAA guidelines (these can be checked on the website under the Wellness, Covid-19 tab).
The GAA protocols in this case are that the player immediately gets tested for Covid and if there has been a training session in the previous 48 hours all players and coaches are considered as close contacts. The player had not trained with Cloich Cheann Fhaola since Tuesday. Nevertheless, as the player in question has socialised with a number of his club colleagues, the Donegal CCC are taking the precaution of postponing this weekend’s fixture between Cloich Cheann Fhaola and Naomh Micheál. All players and coaches that have been in contact with the player in question are self-isolating until the test result is known.
