Please note that under16's, under 15 Div. 1 and under 12's Div. 2 have been granted an extension to season as shown below.

Dear all, the situation with regards to extension to season.
Having failed earlier to get an extension to season for all divisions I contacted the LFA regarding our problems in particular the under 16’s who are taking exams etc. and will not be able to play twice a week and again on Saturdays. The division has more teams in it than other divisions.
The LFA were sympathetic to our cause and asked me to put in a cut down request which could be put to the powers that be for consideration.
I therefore requested that under 16’s (22 games to play), under 15’s Div. 1 (20 games to play) and under 12’s Div. 2 (22 games to play) should be considered for an extension to the 15th June 2016, with hope that we could complete by the 2nd Saturday 11th June.
This has been accepted. We can therefore accept requests to re-arrange problem fixtures within these 3 leagues. The teams must come to us with dates agreed with both managers. Contact Keith mail@northburyjfl.co.uk or by mobile 07896036664.

The situation with games that are cancelled at the last minute I believe still stays the same, they fail to fulfil. Those games have been agreed and then not played. It has nothing to do with when the season ends.
