Betfred Championship Update – August 6

Betfred Championship Update – August 6

The Betfred Championship fixture between Bradford Bulls and Sheffield Eagles which was scheduled for Sunday (August 8) has been postponed, at Sheffield’s request under the sport’s Covid-19 fixture protocols. 

As for last weekend’s home fixture against York City Knights, Sheffield meet the threshold for postponement of at least seven senior players ruled out either as a result of positive Covid-19 tests or as close contacts. 

The clubs will now liaise with the RFL in an attempt to find a date to rearrange the fixture, although part-time teams cannot be required to play in midweek. 

The Betfred Championship table is to be determined on win points percentage.
