RUGBY LEAGUE: There’s only one place to watch St Mary’s College’s round 2 Allan Langer Cup clash this week.

Spectators will be banned from Wednesday as a precaution against an increase of COVID-19 cases.

“There will be no spectators to any games in the south-east competitio­ns this week,’’ Qld School Sport Rugby League chair Andrew Peach said.

“The action is taken to be proactive in supporting our community to eliminate the potential for community transmissi­on.

“A decision about Round 3 matches will be made in seven days.’’

The edict will include Walters Cup (year 10) and Langer Cup (open).

“We understand that this is a major inconvenie­nce for many of our families and schools who have establishe­d strong safety and check in processes at venues and an excellent culture of supporting students at games,’’ Peach said.

“However, our efforts to support the health and wellbeing of our students and community is vital to us in these unpredicta­ble time.’’

St Mary’s play host to Ipswich State High this week and the match will be livestream­ed at www.thechronic­le.com.au
