Remember that if your match is postponed the home team must inform the Fixture Secretary ASAP, giving the reason for postponement.

If a fixture is reversed with the agreement of both teams you MUST inform the Fixture Secretary asap to avoid any referee, pitch or insurance issues, or any other misunderstanding. If you do not inform the Fixture Secretary the scheduled home team will be considered to have been the home team for the match.
