Covid (three positives) stops the Belluno Dolomites

I am a player and two staff members. The 9th race in Mestre is to be monitored. Giusti: “Those who have shared the locker room with those who have the virus are in quarantine”

The Belluno Dolomites comes to terms with Covid. The increase in infections has not spared even the provincial team, which did not train yesterday due to three positives found within the team group.

Bad news, but almost inevitable in light of the constantly growing data on positivity. Up until now there had been some fiduciary isolation, but no full-blown cases.

Beyond the health issue, the sports problem is that some of the players have to remain in quarantine for a week, thus losing training days. At this point, the approach to the match on Sunday 9 January at Mestre will have to be carefully monitored. There is still no room for thought related to a postponement, God forbid.

ABOUT TEN

“From the point of view of the numbers, the positive data of the team group is quite limited”, explains Nicola Giusti, vice president of Dolomiti Bellunesi. «We have three between players and technical staff. That is enough, however, to send those who used the locker room together with the player in question to quarantine. Fortunately, the team is divided into two groups and uses different spaces to change. As a result, about ten boys will be able to return to training, while the other now remains in quarantine for a week. In the meantime, we will have the third dose of the vaccine given to those who are not subjected to isolation. The hope, however, is that no other positivity will result in the coming days. In this case we will see how to move, also in the light of the new indications regarding quarantines ».

In short, not good news, considering how the Christmas break period is important to work towards the second part of the season. More than anything else, the approach to the away match in Mestre will have to be kept in mind, even if in principle the Dolomiti Bellunesi should have the majority of the group back at their disposal starting from the beginning of next week.

REGIONAL AND PROVINCIAL FERMI

It should be remembered that the trend of the pandemic has advised the Veneto Committee of the FIGC to suspend the championships from Promotion to Third Category, including youth, in addition to C2 and D of 5-a-side football.

This from Saturday 8 to Sunday 23 January, in order to avoid sending the teams onto the field when the situation is undoubtedly more complicated. Only the recoveries are scheduled until January 6, in order to take advantage in the meantime to complete the match schedule of the first round. The hope is to resume on January 30, then playing also in that month of April which originally would have seen the last day on Sunday 10.

Instead, the D 11-a-side football series, Women’s Excellence and the B 5-a-side football series continue, talking about championships in which teams from Belluno are involved. In addition to the respective categories under 19.
