The Taskforce is working very closely with SULOM, the teams and Ministry of Health in ensuring adherence to national COVID-19 and Football restart guidelines in the management of the situation at hand.
Please take note that we are swiftly arranging for the testing of all the people who were in contact with Nyasa Big Bullets Football Club personal during their most recent fixture ( Players, Officials, Referees, and Ball retrievers ).
