This is a reminder to clubs that replays of washed out games should be played within one month.
Having said that the replays of some of the games washed out on 15th and 29th November will be extended to 7th February.
This extention excludes competitions which have provision for a 'wet weather' replay weekend on 20 December. Subject to ground availability.
If clubs do not want to play so close to Christmas they may replay the washed out games as a midweek prior to 20th December.
Before Saturday the games that would have been scheduled for 20th December were-
Cashmore South .
Castle Hill v Oakville and now Baulkham Hills v Schofields
Street South ........ Winston Hills v Kellyville
Bergan ................ Kellyville v Schofields
Vigenser.................Castle Hill v Winston Hills ( drawn as a midweek).
Those four Leagues are the only ones with the provision of a 'wet weather weekend' (20th December) in the draw.
The pitching restrictions will apply to replays as they do to normal games... There are to be no exceptions as the restrictions are based on player protection rules.
Our biggest problem will be in Youth League where all clubs other than Baulkham Hills are now at least two games behind.
