17 JUNE - League AGM and General Meeting - All clubs are reminded that it is the League AGM and General Meeting on Monday 17 June at 7:30 at Bramall Lane. All clubs must be represented. We also have a representative from the Sheffield Referees Association attending to give us a presentation on the Temporary Dismissals (Sin-Bins) that will be used in the new season. 15 JUNE - Beighton Magpies looking to add players to their squad - The Division Two team, Beighton Magpies, are looking for some dedicated experienced players to add to their young squad for the 2019-20 season. Anyone interested should contact Steve on 07716586638, or by email to stvnfeatherstone@aol.com. 13 JUNE - Rule changes for the 2019-20 season - There is a number of significant rule changes for the new season: ♦ Goal Kicks and Free Kicks taken by the defending side inside the penalty area. ♦ Substutes leaving the field of play. ♦ Drop Ball. ♦ The ball hits the Referee. ♦ Defensive Wallsof 3 or more players. ♦ Handball.

5 JUNE - Five new clubs set to join the League & League Constitution for 2019-20 - After the League held interviews with applicants, subject to ratification by member clubs at the AGM on 17 June, five new clubs were successful. Three of them have come from the Meadowhall Under 21 - champions, New Bohemians, runners-up Nether Green and fourth place Eckington BFC. The fourth, playing at the Dorothy Hyman Stadium, is Barnsley & District Division Two champions Darfield Queen Victoria, whilst the fifth sees the return of a Killamarsh Juniors team. Again, subject to taification by member clubs, to accomodate the new clubs there are a few changes to the constitution for the 2019-20 season from what may have been expected at the end of the last season. Forum FC has folded, with many of the players joining forces with Handsworth Inn (Old Crown last season). This will mean that Cotts FC will join Royal Earl and Crookes in the CBC Premier to keep that Division at 11 teams. To take Division One up to 12 teams, Norton Oaks will not be relegated, and as well as Boynton Sports, Sheffield Sixs and Mosborough Whites, Colley and Woodhouse JFC will also be promorted from Division Two. There will also be 12 teams in Division Two. The constitution could change if there are any further withdrawals by member clubs, but none are expected. Current known details of all clubs for the 2019-20 season are now shown in the Clubs section. All clubs MUST check their details and email keithsssl@aol.com to either confirm their details are correct, or provide any necessary amendments. This should be done no later that Friday 14 June. 8 MAY - Further Funding Opportunity for Clubs - After feedback the County FA has received from both leagues and clubs they have created a range of new funding grants available to clubs to apply for from now, specifically for single team clubs, as they were not eligible for the ‘Stay in the Game’ fund, which is currently open. There are numerous different grants for clubs to apply for depending on their specific needs. These are separated into two areas: Adult Football Fund - http://www.sheffieldfa.com/news/2019/may/07/adult-football-fund - Growth Fund & Retention Fund Charter Standard Development Fund - http://www.sheffieldfa.com/news/2019/may/03/charter-standard-development-fund - Growth Fund, Partnership Fund & Development Fund See links to the County FA’s website for more information and the application forms. 30 APR - FA Funding for existing Adult Male clubs - The Football Association (The FA) is re-launching its adult male retention-focused funding scheme to support men’s 11-a-side community football teams in South Yorkshire. The newly-titled Stay in the Game scheme will offer existing clubs the opportunity to apply for grants of £750 to help cover the various associated costs of running a football team. The window for applications is open until Thursday 6 June 2019. For more detail see https://www.sheffieldfa.com/news/2019/apr/17/stay-in-the-game Clubs seeking more information on the programme should either contact Leon Dearns, Adult Football Office on 0114 261 5507 or email Leon.Dearns@SheffieldFA.com.

22-Sept 2014 - County FA new phone number - The Sheffield & Hallamshire County FA now has a new phone number - 0114 261 5500 19 August 2013 - Social Media - All clubs are reminded to tell their players and officials that any mis-use of social media such as Twitter, Facebook etc, can lead to penalties being imposed by both the County FA and the League. This mis-use could be in the form of poor or abusive comments about a referees display, another club or player, the League and its management, the County FA and its employees, or the FA. Even if someone just forwards, or agrees with, abusive or damaging comments made by someone else, they will be dealt with the same as if they made the comments. The League, so far hasn't had too many issues with this, although a few clubs have been warned that their players need to be careful in what comments some of them have said or agreed with
19 Apr 2012 - Blades Super Draw
League honoured by The FA For 25 years the League's Merit Award system, culminates in the Steve Gee Merit Cup Final each season. The system, which rewards clubs for good behaviour and good discipline throughout the season, was a key element. The League was also the first Adult Men's Sunday League in the Sheffield & Hallamshire County FA area to adopt The FA's Respect banner. We have continued our efforts to make the League one of the best, if not the best, in the country by refunding a portion of League fees back to the top five clubs in terms of discipline. The aim is to make our games enjoyable for players officials and spectators alike and we intend to try to continue to find ways of furthering our principles. All the people that have contributed over the years should be very proud and our clubs should also be very proud of the way that they have helped by adopting the principles set out by the League.
