As you know yesterday was a fund raising day for Testicular Cancer.
I am pleased to announce that so far we have raised the superb amount of £2400!!
Hopefully more to come next weekend when additional teams who did not play yesterday do so.

The man in the middle is a legend. David Woodcock 25 years reffing on the WDFA. Many, many people have won awards for less. Lets get David nominated / presented with an award. Come on

First aid kits collected and being delivered free of charge to all teams in the WDFA. Small gesture but it goes a long way. Maybe other leagues will follow the example?

So that’s my tweeting over for the season. No more dogs being shot on the pitch or shits flying wide of the post. Apologies for any mistakes they are entirely down to me and no one else.

Can I just advise i have no direct line to either Boris Johnson or the Dept for Culture, Media & Sport. So people asking me if WDFA games are going in next week are wasting their time. Plus I have been in the pub all night.

This time next week, there will be a lot of tired limbs I suspect (mine especially) as many will have played their first game of football for 4 months.
Please remember for the first two weeks at least, changing rooms can't be used and there are no spectators.

This cost us around £1000 why have money sitting on our bank account when we can help teams? We all know money is tight for clubs.

I am still unsure why WDFA is considered the poor relation of Oxon football? We are the only league with growing numbers and win the Junior Shield more than others? Perhaps
@OxOnFootball
can advise?

The WDFA Management Committee has decided that we will not charge admission to the match, BUT will ask for voluntary donations from spectators.
We will then liaise with Dev's family / Hailey FC to decide where the money collected will go.

In case anyone has not seen our FB message. We have agreed as a league that clubs can cancel fixtures if concerned about or have Covid in their club. We hope clubs dont take the proverbial, but safety of players, officials and spectators is our primary concern.

We are expecting at least 100 or so hoppers at each venue. It would be great as a league if we can support the teams hosting the games if possible.
All are providing food & drink and have raffles and programmes on sale.
