You must complete the League form (downloadable in the League Forms area on the League website) in order to request postponing a game.
• The form must be completed in full.
• Incomplete forms will be returned.
• Requests not on the correct League form will be returned.
• Requests not done in the correct manner could result in charges of non-fulfilment issued.
• Request not made within the correct timescales will be rejected.
• You can complete the form via email and send the £2 admin fee in the post.
• Payment must be made by cheque or postal order only. This payment must arrive within seven days of sending the form by email. Failure to do this could result in a charge of failing to adhere to an instruction of the management committee.
• All payment for fixture requests must be sent to the League Secretary. Cheques should be made payable to “Sheffield & District Junior Sunday League”.
• You can only make 2 requests per team per season
The completed form needs to be submitted to the League Secretary 28 days prior to when the scheduled fixture was due to be played, (14 days in the case of the first two fixture dates of the season) with a cheque/postal order for £2.
Only make a request to postpone a fixture if you really need to.
The following are not valid reasons: “we have a few players away”. “We have a player suspended by the county FA”. We need to know how many are in your squad and why the players are missing.
A decision regarding granting permission will be made via email to your club secretary. You should liaise with your club secretary to find out the outcome of your request. If the request is granted, then a new date has submitted to your age group registrar in writing or by email, by both Clubs, within fourteen days of the postponement of the fixture date. Any Club failing to comply with this Rule shall be liable to a minimum fine of £10-00 or otherwise dealt with at the discretion of the Management Committee.
NOTE: 14 days and not 28 days is required in the case of the first two fixture dates of the season
