With the new lockdown announced, all Grassroots football is currently suspended.

Under current Government guidelines, all Grassroots sport is currently suspended and for Amaranth, this means all matches and training cannot take place until further notice.

We hope this will be a short break and indications are they Grassroots sports will be one of the first things to restart

We appreciate how much our members are missing their football and we keen to get back to playing as soon as we can. We are ready to put in any measures to ensure we operate in a COVID secure way and we are working the leagues and other clubs to get back to playing quickly.

The delay to the season is likely to extend games and matches into May and June when leagues would normally be finishing and Amaranth will be looking to keep playing as long as possible.

The Committee have confirmed that Subscriptions will be suspended until play resumes. Unfortunately it was not possible to cancel January requests for Direct Debits as this process begins several days before the actual payment has been taken, however please be assured that no payments will be collected in February and the position will be kept under review in future months as the position changes.

Although we are not playing at present, our winter training costs are very high in winter months and equate to significantly more than the monthly fee - for this reason, we smooth the costs over the course of the season. We also have ongoing costs as a club that we need to be met to survive . Please be assured that over the course of the season, we expect you have received as much training and matches as normal, providing this lockdown remains short.

If you are experiencing financial difficulty as a result of this pandemic, please speak to your Team Manager. We will help.

Please stay safe and we look forward to getting back to football as soon as we can
