CWFL Statement re Coronavirus & Football
FA Concludes all Grassroots Football for season 2019-2020.
Once again these unprecedented times have thrown grassroots football another curve ball. Today the FA announced that all grassroots football has been concluded for the 2019-2020 season due to the global pandemic caused by the Coronavirus in order “for the game to move forward and to commence planning for next season”.
The league will now be working with Cheshire FA to look at ways we can best facilitate the integrity of our competition whilst also working with our clubs to achieve the best platform going forward. You can rest assured that as always we will work with you, our clubs, to ensure we get this right. Cup competitions will also be on the agenda.
These times are extremely challenging to us all. We have been heartened to have received messages of support from clubs with regards to the difficult situation we all find ourselves in. The CWFL will be working hard behind the scenes to bring you the very best football we can once the green light has been given. We will keep you all fully informed via regular communications.
In the meantime it is imperative that we all follow our Governments advice and stay home, save lives and protect our brilliant NHS.
Wishing you all the very best. Stay safe.
Best Regards
CWFL Committee
