Doncaster Hockey Club forced to concede men's fixture after player tests positive for Covid-19
Doncaster Hockey Club had to concede their National League game against Barford Tigers at the weekend after a player tested positive for Covid-19.
A club spokesperson said: “Unfortunately our men's first team has been affected by Covid-19.
"Following the previous weekend's game one player tested positive and he had driven three other players to Lichfield. This meant that four players had to isolate for 14 days, including two goalkeepers.
"In these circumstances we had to concede the game to Barford Tigers scheduled for Sunday.
"A decision hasn't been made yet about the men's first team fixture for the upcoming weekend.”
Meanwhile, Doncaster’s ladies dropped their first points of the season as they lost 2-1 at early pacesetters Wakefield.
Emma Bray was on target for the Town Field side, who host Leeds this Saturday (noon).
