Leinster propose antigen testing for fans at RDS
Reading now: 695
Leinster Rugby has submitted plans to Government to use rapid antigen testing to allow the return of spectators to matches at the RDS Arena.
Leinster are seeking to host a trial match next month and say their proposal is approved by the IRFU. The province have made the submission as a direct response to the Government's Rapid Testing Group's recommendation to immediately implement such trial events.
Pre-match antigen testing would take place by appointment and would be on site at the RDS. Capacity would be capped at 2,000 spectators, just 11% of normal match-day capacity.
Leinster members would be part of a ballot to buy pairs of tickets and each attending pair of spectators must come from the same household or Covid-19 bubble.
