PITCHING In Isthmian League clubs will be allowed to kick off Saturday matches early in order to help clubs meet the rising cost of energy bills.

Chairman Nick Robinson has written to all clubs to inform them that, in order to reduce costs – particularly those related to floodlights – they can bring forward Saturday afternoon kick-off times so long as both clubs agree.

Decisions should be made between both clubs and the Isthmian League should be informed of any change as early as possible.
