Important change to rule

Due to a problem which has arisen from the printers the following rule is to be added to this season’s handbook.

Rule 10 (c)
Except by permission of the Management Committee all matches must be played on the dates originally fixed but priority shall be given to The Football Association and all relevant County Association Cup Competitions. All other matches must be considered secondary. Clubs may mutually agree to bring forward a match with the consent of the Fixtures Secretary.
Any club not requiring a fixture on a given date, must so in writing either letter or e-mail to the Fixtures Secretary, allowing 28 days notice. In the event of a club failing to keep an engagement, and not complying with the above, it will result in the club being charged with an alleged breach of fixture.
