Hi everyone
The tournament sub-committee has looked at the calendar to make the change for the postponed round 5. We need to play round 5 as the competition is very close particularly in the West Zone.
Round 5 will now be played on 28th April (which was originally the finals day). Venues will remain the same as they were set down for round 5 i.e. East - Park Ave and West - Horowhenua. Same start time and same teams as drawn. It will only be play in the morning.
The finals will be played at Kapiti on 13th May which is a Sunday - Mother's Day - so hope this does not create any problems.
Regards
Graeme
