Castleford’s next two games cancelled after more positive tests at Tigers

Castleford’s new two games have been cancelled after four more players tested positive for Covid-19 during their latest round of testing.

The Tigers were scheduled to play against Leeds this Friday and Salford next Monday.

Castleford’s game against Huddersfield that was scheduled for last Friday was cancelled after 13 players received positive results after testing last Tuesday.

The Rugby Football League’s Multiple Cases Group has extended the shutdown of the club following the latest positive results.

No decision has yet been made on Castleford’s Round 22 fixture against Wakefield Trinity, with two further rounds of testing to be carried out this week.
