Postponed Fixtures

Given the statement by the FA on Grassroots football, Craven Aire Wharfe Junior League are postponing ALL fixtures for the foreseeable future; this is at both Junior and Senior level.

The statement issued by the government today (16th March) goes on to state:

'now is the time for everyone to stop non-essential contact with others and to stop all unnecessary travel'

The league can't dictate whether or not your club should continue with training sessions and the guidance is to exercise but at a distance from others; I suppose where do you draw the line?

We will, as usual, be monitoring developments of this siyuation and are currently drawing up plans on should there be no further fixtures played this season.
