Update – 1:36pm
Dear Members,
After further assessment of the impact of today’s announcement on the NSFA football community and the additional government restrictions taking effect at 11:59pm tonight, we have made the decision to postpone ALL FIXTURES scheduled from 11:59pm tonight until 11:59pm on Friday, July 2nd.
The latest Sydney lockdown will not only impact players, but also referees, coaches and parents. We believe this decision will support Clubs logistically and ensure we continue to lead the community in the most responsible manner.
Please follow the Public Health Order and stay safe.
Yours in football,
Ed Ferguson
NSFA CEO
