South Georgia Tormenta FC News Release


STATESBORO, Ga. - South Georgia Tormenta FC announced today that its home opener against the Richmond Kickers on July 18 has been postponed. In coordination with League One, Tormenta FC will announce a rescheduled date as soon as it is available.

The decision to postpone the match was made out of an abundance of caution following the results of a July 7 test, which produced an initial unconfirmed positive COVID-19 case for two individuals on Tormenta FC's 40-person covered list. Under the league's health and safety protocols, clubs are tested on a weekly basis and the individuals involved have been placed in isolation, are recovering in good spirits under the care of team physicians and infectious disease experts, and all league, local and state safety protocols are being followed.

Tormenta FC values the continued support of its fans and the health and safety of everyone in our community will always be our highest priority. The club will continue to follow the guidance of the local health departments and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in regards to upcoming games at Erk Russell Park in Statesboro, Georgia.
