THE FA has ratified the decision to end the 2019-20 season across Steps 3-7 of the National League System, Tiers 3 to 7 of the women’s football pyramid and the wider grassroots game.
Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the FA has been working collaboratively with the leagues within the National League System, the Women’s Football Board, the Women’s Football Conference and the wider grassroots game to identify the most appropriate way to conclude the 2019-20 season at each level.
The request to end the 2019-20 season was taken to the FA Council by the representatives of the relevant committees and was fully supported by the FA Board.
