The Boys Clubs meeting scheduled for Monday October 13th has been postponed and re-arranged for Monday October 20th (still at Ise Lodge Community Centre, kick off 8:15pm).

This ia to allow Peter Nicholson to make a presentation on the FA RESPECT campaign.  The League have decided to attempt to start this in the Under 11 age group (all Divisions).  It would be helpful, therefore, if clubs could have the relevant managers in attendance, along with any potential referees at this age group.

 

It has been noted that some mini soccer matches, previously postponed for whatever reason, are being rearranged between the clubs without League involvement.  Please note that any potential rescheduled fixtures must be arranged through the League.

 

I have been asked to remind clubs to check carefully the full name of the match referee.  we are getting a number of occasions where wrong information is being put on the result sheets.  This season, the NFA have requested information about all referees, so it is vital to provide correct names.  Also, on result sheets, please only state 1 Man of the Match, not 2 or "whole team".  You will note that MOM is recorded on Mitoo.  Also, ALL players must be included on the result sheet, regardless of how much, or little, time they have been on the pitch.

 

ADVANCE NOTICE - the League AGM will be held on Monday, 6th July 2009, Ise Lodge Community Centre 8:15pm.

 

Finally (I think), we seem to have problems with the administering of laws at Centre Venue fixtures.  This may be partly due to Rule 26 stating Small Sided but relates to Mini Soccer.  Would all Club Secretaries please ensure that referees are aware of the laws as in the handbook, especially that ther are no indirect free kicks.
