A NON-PLAYING member of Saints staff has tested positive in this week’s routine testing for Covid-19 across the 11 Betfred Super League clubs.
The club has postponed planned training activity for today, as they work with the RFL on Test and Trace analysis relating to the relevant individual.
The club said: "There will also be a retest of the staff member who has tested positive, but who is not displaying any symptoms – with the possibility of further testing for the squad this week as a precaution."
Castleford Tigers, who played the Saints on Sunday, have also been informed.
At this stage there is no need for any of their staff to self-isolate under the Test and Trace procedures agreed for the resumption of Rugby League with Public Health England.
Neither Saints or Castleford has a fixture scheduled this weekend.
The full weekly breakdown of results from the 11 Betfred Super League clubs will be provided when possible in the coming days.
