2. For clubs with smaller numbers we will have one pitch ready.
3. We planned this to be a CLUB JERSEY GAME but just in case of low numbers due to holidays, EVERY CLUB is also asked to bring their “BLACK AND AMBER” Bibs as well. This way we can guarantee all players games. THANK YOU. Clubs please bring “Club jersies” and “Black and Amber” bibs.
