Our u12 Gold team won our 3 group games to reach the semi-finals of the conference cup.
The semi-finals were to be played on 15th Jan . We have suddenly been told that 4 more losing teams have been added and that we have to play in the quarter finals this weekend or before the winter break on 18th Dec.
This is bullshit - we reached the semi-finals on merit by winning all 3 of our group games.
We have played all our leage games + don,t have any make-up games and had told the parents/players we don,t have anymore games til 8th Jan 2011. We also have 4 players injured and another couple on vacation leaving us with only 6 players.
In the circumstances can we refuse to play as we don,t have enough fit players and that we had already reached the semi-finals.
