Sunday morning training & Fixtures
We will look at the forecast, and make a decision about the 9.15 to 10.15 session the evening before to give parents and players plenty of notice.
There will then be a pitch inspection on Sunday morning to decide if later sessions can go ahead. The situation is quite dynamic as the pitches thaw, so bear with us on these occasions. We will keep you updated!
Wednesday Evenings
We will look at the forecast on Wednesday morning and make a decision then to give parents and players plenty of notice with respect to travel and school pick up planning.
