LGFC chairman Emma Smart has issued a statement about the status of the club during the current pause.
Merry Christmas to all those I did not get a chance to speak with and Happy New Year to you all. May this year be more positive than 2020.
It is with the best interests of the club that we have decided to stop all participation in football until at least the 18th January.
With the recent COVID update from the Government on 30th December and with secondary schools unable to go back until the 18th January, the club will remain closed until this time.
If an update happens before 18th January we will review, however for the safety of all, committee, management, players and all our families, there will be no football played at Pancake Lane.
All football at NLS steps 3-6, SSML and SCYFL remain paused.
The latest EJA guidelines are that all football has been cancelled for this coming weekend. They have also stated that no players can travel across areas of tier 4 and no teams can travel across areas. We have confirmation that areas now mean counties. Therefore players that live in Bedfordshire cannot play for a Hertfordshire team currently etc.
Thank you for your co-operation during this difficult time. This is truly not what anyone wants and we would all love to be back playing and watching. The Health and safety of everyone at the club is paramount and has to be taken very seriously.
Hopefully see you all very soon
Emma
