A City of Armagh RFC player has tested positive for Covid-19, the Club has confirmed to Armagh I.
The player attended training last Thursday evening with no symptoms and followed IRFU protocols.
A City of Armagh spokesperson, speaking to Armagh I, this morning (Wednesday), said: “Training took place outdoors in a ‘pod’ of 15 payers all socially distancing. The player concerned is now self-isolating.
“All the other players in the pod have returned negative tests for Covid-19, as have the coaches who were in attendance.
“As an added precaution the specific player pod will not train this week.
