- ARE THE GAMES ON?
What do I do?, who do I contact?
PLEASE NOTE: Rain does not automatically mean games are off.
It is the state of the ground that determines whether matches proceed.
Referees have final say on the closure of a ground after a visual inspection prior to
a match. They may also call off a match if conditions deteriorate during a fixture.

Where a round is partially postponed games must be played within twenty one (21) days. A date for the replay should be organised within three (3) days of the postponement. Club Secretaries of EACH of the participating Clubs shall inform their Competition Centre, and the Referees Association, of the new dates for the match at the same time the match is re-scheduled. Failure to play the match within 21 days may result in the match being rescheduled on a play or forfeit basis.
DEFERMENT :- All requests for deferment of games (other than for wet weather), must be in writing to the respective Competition Secretaries twenty one (21) days prior to the date of the listed fixture. The Competition Secretary, in consultation with all parties concerned will adjudicate on the matter if Clubs can't reach a mutual agreement on the deferral. Normal Rules on the deferment of matches will apply.
f) CANCELLATION :- If a round is totally called off due to wet weather or any other reason it will be deemed to be a cancelled round. Manning and Great Lakes Clubs will normally be required to play these cancelled rounds.
