Just to make you aware we have just taken the decision to postpone ‘Prop Idol’ until to the 8th April – further details to follow.
The reason for the postponement is due to the current unstable weather and that it is forecast to be a -3 or -4 wind chill during the event we felt it was best to do so basd upon duty of care of the players.

With very cold weather forecast for the coming Sunday, please ensure that if training/matches are held that all pitches are inspected for suitabilty to play.
Hopefully the weather will be fine, though I would remind everyone (parents as well as coaches) that all players are to be suitably dressed for the conditions, and that the appropriate amount of layers are worn!
If there is any doubt, safety first!
