Following from the latest FA Guidance on grassroots football issued last week, Hampshire FA has issued a further update on operations during COVID-19: 

• Hampshire FA hub sites at Winklebury Football Complex and Front Lawn Community Hub to remain closed until 31 July 2020 subject to review as lockdown restrictions ease.
• Hampshire FA hub site at Stoneham Lane Football Complex to begin process of phased re-opening from 6 July 2020 with limited opening hours (further details to be released in due course) 
• All Hampshire FA staff, with the exception of those listed below, to remain on furlough leave until 31 July 2020 subject to review as lockdown restrictions ease. 

Any updates to FA guidance for grassroots football will be communicated to stakeholders as and when received. 

We will issue a further communication if opportunities exist to recall staff from furlough and/or open other our hub sites prior to 31 July 2020.
