Guide to follow for fixture postponements
If your pitch is unavailable, speak to your opposition first & see if they can accommodate you with the fixture at their ground or seek an alternative venue suitable for housing the fixture to league standards.
Ensure no players are contacted prior to this stage being carried out.
1) If all else fails, contact the Referee & Referees Secretary as the referee can be re-directed to another fixture.
2) Contact the Match Secretary & alert them that your game is postponed & give a reason for cancellation.
3) Re-arrange the fixture by using the on-line rearrangement form: https://forms.gle/a5BR3cAX3Y5tF1Xd8
4) Any fixtures other than where you have been unable to raise a side should be re-arranged with-in 14 days of the original fixture date. A further 7 days will be given to set a date before the date is set by the league.
Fines will apply after 14 days & a further 7 days. as per fines tariff
This procedure is vital to the smooth running of the league fixture program & keeping football as continuous as possible throughout the season.
