As it stands, the Central West will emerge from its lock down at midnight on Sunday, meaning clubs gearing up for meaningful contests won't be allowed to train during the week.

While it would certainly be logistically possible to have all the teams run out and play on Sunday, Zamparini is mindful of the hampered preparation, especially for teams who are playing for their season.

"It's a bit harsh that no one can train," he said.

"A lot of these clubs are playing in really important games in all of the grades.

"We're going to Zoom in next week and come to some sort of decision. We still have to wait and see, though."

Seven days was the initial time frame given by the NSW government, but Zamparini thinks it could stretch longer than that.

"I can't see us playing next week," he said.

"It's been a season from hell, but in saying that, the health and safety of everyone is paramount.

"We've also got the option of pushing the season back a week."

Woodbridge Cup president Andrew Pull had a few ideas about what his competition's semi-finals might look like, but opted to wait until after his board meeting on Tuesday evening.

Pull was slightly less concerned about team's inability to train.

New South Wales rugby league provided some advice for community competitions throughout regional NSW in the wake of the lock down announcement.

"The NSWRL will continue to work with Local Leagues, the Office of Sport and NSW Health to consider recommencement options in relevant areas," NSWRL Head of Football Robert Lowrie said.

"We wish everyone all the best and please stay home and stay safe during this time."

Please note the advice from the NSW Government means there can be NO games and training.

The NSWRL is presently working through the implications that this decision has for our plans to resume Community Competitions in those areas. Clearly, there can be no resumption of competitions during the lockdown period.
