Rescheduling of Games
Players,coaches,managers,parents who intend to register with a football club in the CDSFA in 2011 should be aware of when games that are not played when originally scheduled will be rescheduled. Section 1.9 of the Rules of the Association give a detailed explanation of the rescheduling of games when not played for any reason.
Teams that are involved in a 10 team or 12 team division competition will have a double header in the first 6 rounds of the season…ie these teams will play on both the Saturday and Sunday of a weekend in the first 6 weeks.
Games that are not played as originally scheduled will be rescheduled to the June long weekend and the middle weekend of the July school holidays(these two weekends are originally scheduled as “free” weekends for all divisions except for competitions with ten teams).
Once these two weekends are used then teams will play double headers…ie play on both Saturday and Sunday of the same weekend.
Ten team divisions will have games originally scheduled for Easter Saturday.
