Following on President Ramaphosa\u2019s address of the nation on 15 March, where national COVID-19 containment measures were introduced, the League will cancel SpurFest 2020. Entry fees will be refunded and League administration will be in contact with entrants regarding the mechanism of such refunds.<\/p>\n

Further, The League, Spur Steak Ranches and Schools Cycling South Africa (SCSA) supports all measures introduced by the government to contain the spread of COVIT-19 and recognizes that these steps will have a serious impact on League activities going forward.<\/p>\n

\nSchools Cycling South Africa (SCSA) is of the firm belief that everyone can and should contribute to preventing or slowing down the spread of COVID 19 and it is obvious that Schools have a critical role to play. SCSA will follow the guidelines of our Government and the Department of Education relating to the above.<\/p>\n

Further measures may be implemented on short notice by the Schools and Education and\/or Public health authorities. SCSA in conjunction with the League are taking our responsibility seriously and will monitor this closely.

Official updates regarding the League program will be disseminated via the League and SCSA media platforms.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, we urge all League participants and their families to follow protocol and stay safe during this extraordinary time.<\/p>\n
