When can a person leave self-isolation after testing positive to Covid-19

If a club is advised of a confirmed case of Covid-19 in a team

  • The club should contact the player/parents to ascertain when and where the player was last in attendance at football;
  • The club will organise a deep clean of amenities used by the participant who tests positive.  The amenities can be used once the deep clean is completed.
  • Players in the team and team officials should refer to the NSW Health Covid-19 website or call the Covid-19 Helpline on 13 77 88
  • Persons who have tested positive should only return to football once they have met all requirements of NSW Health and are no longer required to self isolate.
  • Any other teams and match officials that the positive case came into contact with in the previous 7 days should also self isolate and refer to the NSW Health Covid-19 website for up to date information.
  • Participants should seek the advice of:
    • National Coronavirus Health line – 1800 020 080
    • Service NSW Covid-19 Helpline – 13 77 88
