THE West of England Premier League have given dispensation to clubs to reorganise Saturday’s matches due to England’s World Cup quarter-final against Sweden, which kicks off at 3pm.
Clubs have been advised they can either stick to the normal playing arrangements, with matches starting at 12.30pm or begin at noon and have an extended tea break to watch the football.
The second innings of matches must begin at 5pm, regardless off whether England’s match has concluded, and that existing procedures must be followed if no agreement can be reached between teams and umpires.
