The FA has announced that girls may take part in mixed football up until the Under-13 age group from next season. The current age limit is Under-11, but this has been extended following research and trials. There is a limit, however, of four girl players in any 11-a-side mixed team.

There have been an increasing number of reports of alleged adult-related misconduct lately. Clubs - please remember that you are responsible for the behaviour of your players, officials and supporters at matches. Any club that is found guilty of charges by a County FA Disciplinary Commission not only risks its FA Charter Standard status, but also faces the possibility of further action by the League Management Committee in the best interests of the League, which could include expulsion from membership. We would remind all members of the RESPECT Codes of Conduct.
