Scotland team update

28 Jun 2021

​The Scotland men’s squad and management team will take a break from training camp to self-isolate following consultation with Scottish Government medical advisors.

The playing group and management team will return to training next week pending a full round of negative PCR test results.

Interim Head Coach Mike Blair, said: “Having worked closely with Dr James Robson, the Scottish Government medical advisors, and our medical team at Scottish Rugby over the last 24 hours, we’ve made the decision to take a break from training camp, during which period, all players and management will self-isolate regardless of whether they’ve been deemed a close contact of positive cases.

“It’s obviously been a difficult few days, however, the health and wellbeing of our squad and management is the number one priority, and that remains paramount in our decision-making process.”

Scottish Rugby continues to operate an extensive health and safety coronavirus mitigation plan and follow all respective health guidance aligned through Scottish Rugby’s Threat Management Group.
