Scottish FA guidelines on the return of football
Lower-league SPFL clubs are clear to return to contact training from Monday.
The Scottish FA suspended all football below Premiership level on 13 August following Covid-19 rule breaches by players from Aberdeen and Celtic.
That has now been lifted in line with updated Scottish government advice, and youth and non-professional training is also permitted.
Clubs in the Championship, League One and Two are due to begin their season in the League Cup on 6 October.
"This is a significant and hugely positive step forward for the whole of Scottish football," said SFA president Rod Petrie.
The update comes a week after it emerged English League One side Hull City were training at Oriam in Edinburgh after Hearts had been ordered to stop.
