PREMIER Futsal League outfit Indy Bullets coach WitsonNyirenda has urged players to remain fit by continuing with individual training during the Covid-19 pandemic period.
Nyirenda said the league which was called off following a ban on contact sports, would soon resume hence the need for players to maintain their fitness levels.
Nyirenda said players must be committed to doing some light trainings at their respective homes to be relevant when the Premier Futsal League (PFL) resumes.
He noted that there will be no time for players to do catch up when the league resumes.
“My general advice to all the players in the league is to maintain fitness. Anything can happen the league may be authorised to continue. They can say the league should be played indoors only, so the players need to be ready.
“We are remaining with four games and most players will struggle especially those that are not disciplined in the first two games but they will pick up,” Nyirenda said.
“We are hoping maybe by the end of this month the games can return. If we can be training indoors that can be good as well. By the time the league will reach the quarter finals and the semifinal, players would have regained their full fitness,” he said.
Nyirenda noted that PFL Clubs are hopeful that the league will resume by end of May or early June.
The Wildcat PFL was suspended in March after the Zambian government suspended sporting activities to stop the spread of the Covid-19 Pandemic.
Indy Bullets are fourth on the 15-team wildcat PFL table with 49 points while defending champions Automotive FC dominate the chart with 67 points, nine points ahead of second placed Alliance Inter FC.
