Following advice from Football NSW, which has
been liaising with the FFA and the Federal Government in relation to the
COVID-19 virus, there is a suspension of all football activities until Tuesday
April 14.
The MWFA Board will
meet with the Presidents of all 17 clubs and the MWFRA on Wednesday evening
(March 18) to discuss the situation and consider a date for the 2020 MWFA
Competitions to commence.
At this stage the ban on all football activities includes:
- Training sessions
- Pre season friendlies
- MWFA Competition matches
- FFA Cup matches
- Training sessions with external providers/academies/private providers
- MWFA Coach education courses
- Football Club events (muster days, grading days).
We will be working with the clubs to put together a list of Frequently Asked
Questions and further information, which will be distributed later in the week.
