HANDBOOK AMENDMENT
Unfortunately this season we have had a few problems with the printing of the handbook. Rule 10 C should read as follows:-
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 do so in writing, text or e-mail to the League 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.


GENERAL CLUB REMINDERS
Reminder to clubs ? match cards must reach Wes by Wednesday following Saturday?s game. Failure to do so will result in fines and for more persistent offenders the Committee may decide on harder penalties.
REMINDER Clubs should phone results on Saturday evenings before 6p.m.
SIGNING ON FORMS ? These should be sent to Phil Baxter (Registrar).
