London, March 13 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Football Association (FA) of England on Friday announced that all professional club football activities in the country have been suspended until April 3 at the earliest. This includes the high-profile Premier League, the lower tiers of football in the country that constitute the Football League and the FA Womens Super League and FA Womens Championship.
It also includes all cup competitions such as the FA Cup and the women's FA Cup alongwith junior competitions.
"The decision is being made purely on the number of cases requiring self-isolation and the impact on facilities. Given the steps being taken across clubs, there is no alternative but for today's action. However, all parties are committed at this time to trying to complete this season's domestic fixture programme and are liaising to establish appropriate options to do so," said the FA in its statement.
"We are liaising with the National League pyramids (men's and women's) and will continue to offer guidance and support. Any decision to continue playing or to postpone their respective competitions is a matter for each league as autonomous bodies within the game."
