Following the uncertainty regarding the new Covid-19 variant is causing, there have been a number of withdrawals from countries outside of Africa due to their borders being closed and international flights being cancelled due to this.  

The National Coronavirus Command Council meeting, which was earlier announced as scheduled for Sunday, 28 November 2021, has been brought forward to Saturday, 27 November 2021.

The Council will assess developments in the COVID-19 pandemic, including scientific updates around the newly detected coronavirus variant, which has been named Omicron by the World Health Organisation.

The outcomes of this meeting will give direction as to whether further consultation is required at the level of the President’s Coordinating Council (PCC).

We ask you to remain disciplined in applying the known safety measures.

For the time being, we will continue with the SA event even if it is just the local players participating.
