Parks football pitches 3rd & 4th Jan - Ref's decision
From Sheffield City Council Parks and Countryside Service
This relates to pitches on Sheffield City Council S
CIRCULAR TO ALL CLUBS ALLOCATED TO PARKS AND COUNTRYSIDE SERVICE FOOTBALL PITCHES
"I am writing to inform you that despite the recent inclement weather conditions, the Parks and Countryside Service has decided against suspending football matches this weekend, Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th January 2015." The decision will be with the referee if the pitch is playable.
"I would point out, however, that some football pitches might not be fit for match play and may not have been marked out. Where this is apparent, please ensure your match is cancelled.
This will allow the pitch to recover and enable it to sustain fixtures for the remainder of the season. Failure to cancel a fixture on an unsuitable pitch surface will cause damage which will not be possible to rectify during the season and, in certain cases, may result in the pitch being unsuitable for any further matches."
