NFNL Statement – May 28-30 Matches Cancelled


Published on Thursday, May 27, 2021

Following the State Government’s announcement that Victoria will enter a seven-day lockdown, all NFNL football and netball matches fixtured for the weekend of May 28-30 have been cancelled.

This is extremely disappointing but as you all understand, the matter is out of our hands.

As we informed all clubs at the beginning of the season, if we were required to cancel any matches during the season, we would not be rescheduling those games.

This is still the case and therefore no matches fixtured for the weekend of May 28-30 will be rescheduled.

As disappointing as this is, I anticipate there will still be a lot of football and netball played this year and we have so much to look forward to in season 2021.

I encourage everyone to comply with the COVID restrictions currently in place and hopefully we can get back onto the football field and netball court next weekend.

I will keep you all updated as more information comes to hand.
