Health authorities in New South Wales in Australia have confirmed 12 new coronavirus infections in the 24 hours to 8:00pm yesterday.

None of the new cases were returned overseas travellers in hotel quarantine.

Abc.net.au reports a total of 28,035 people were tested for the virus in the reporting period.

It comes as a Newcastle student diagnosed with coronavirus played a soccer game in a Sydney stadium on the weekend with more than 2,700 onlookers.

He is a member of the Newcastle Jets under 15s representative squad and travelled to Sydney's Dulwich Hill in Sydney's inner-west on Saturday.

The boy, who attends St Pius X High School in Kotara, contracted the virus on the weekend according to local health authorities, prompting the school to shut for cleaning.
