Sporting activities in Auckland in New Zealand have been put on hold until at least Saturday after new cases of COVID-19 community transmission were recorded in the city yesterday.
Following the four new coronavirus infections, Auckland will move to Alert Level 3 at midday today and the rest of New Zealand will move to Level 2.
It's created uncertainty about this weekend's Super Rugby clashes, including Sunday’s sold-out Eden Park match between the Blues and Crusaders.
Games including Saturday's Hurricanes clash with the Highlanders in Wellington could go ahead without spectators under Alert Level 2 as it stands.
New Zealand Rugby says they're in close dialogue with the Government and will provide an update later today.
