Khoza stated that the 16 PSL teams will be based in one location for the rest of the season in order to ensure they can abide by the health regulations set out by the government.
The chairman did not, however, disclose when the league will resume.
“Finishing the season in one province is our best option. We have to control the environment because the risk is all over at the moment. We are doing our best to create an environment that will minimize the risk,” Khoza told IOL.
“What we are doing is what we call a medically justifiable approach where players will be placed in a suitable environment that will stop any interaction with the people not involved in the game.
“You will go to the training and then come back to the same place that we will choose. If you don’t come back after training you won’t be allowed to go back.
“We are doing everything possible because if you leave home and go to work [training], it is a risk. If you go to shops, it is another risk.
“But if you are in that environment, you won’t go to shops, you will be kept in one place. That way we will not increase the risk of infection.”
