From Tuesday 8th May, all age 12s who attended the recent coach in-service day are permitted to organise 11-a-side friendly matches.

They must still fulfil their 7-a-side fixture on Sundays, but may arrange extra matches midweek or Saturday. If games are arranged for Saturday then the match must not interfere with a competitive match which is being played at age 13-15 i.e preventing one of these teams from booking a park or using their referee.

ALL GAMES MUST STILL BE AUTHORISED BY THE LEAGUE. Therefore permission to play must be granted by Match Secretary Derek King. Clubs wishing to play an 11-a-side game must e-mail Derek with details of opponents and date. You will receive an e-mail reply with permission to play. Permission will ony be granted for matches v's teamsin our league. Teams wishing to play opponents from other leagues must apply for permission from the SYFA.

A list of newly qualified referees is available for use on age 12 matches which can be sent by e-mail.
