Following from The FA’s grassroots football guidance released yesterday, Hampshire FA has issued a further update on operations during COVID-19:

• All Hampshire FA events (including cup finals), courses and meetings postponed until 30 June 2020 (unless meetings can be held by Teams, Webex or other electronic means).

• Hampshire FA hub sites at Winklebury Football Complex, Stoneham Lane Football Complex and Front Lawn Community Hub to remain closed until 30 June 2020.

• All Hampshire FA staff, with the exception of those listed below, to remain on furlough leave until 30 June 2020.

We will issue a further communication if opportunities exist to recall staff from furlough and/or open any of our hub sites prior to 30 June 2020.

Furlough leave is a temporary leave of absence for economic reasons and is designed to save jobs in the long term. Our workforce continues to be fantastically supportive of this decision and look forward to returning to work at the earliest possible opportunity.
