The Premier Soccer League (PSL) acting CEO Mato Madlala has informed clubs that they can return to training today, as long as they comply with health regulations.

South African clubs have received a document from Madlala outlining the plans to resume regular training from Wednesday onwards.

"The return to training directive has today been provided to the minister and as soon as confirmation is received that member clubs can return to training, you will be informed in writing," Madlala said in the document sent to all PSL clubs, as quoted by SowetanLIVE.

"The executive committee has indicated to the minister that subject to his confirmation and full compliance with the return to training directive, professional clubs will return to training on Wednesday, the 17th of June 2020."

"Every member club must appoint a Covid-19 compliance officer, in writing, who must meet the obligations set out in the minister's directions," Madlala added.

"Screening and testing of players and support staff must take place in accordance with the minister's directions (this is provided for in the return to training directive) before there is a return to training.

"Records and a register must be kept, and archived for at least six months, including details of all players and/or staff who participate in training, including full names, residential address, cell number, telephone number or email address and contact details of the person or persons living in the same residence as the person attending training."
