A full set of Floodlit Cup fixtures means four of the local Step 6 sides will get the opportunity to get back on the pitch, should the weather hold out.
The first fixture is a Berkshire derby as Woodley United travel to face Binfield on Monday night. Binfield are the current holders of the Floodlit Cup and sit in 10th in the Hellenic Premier League.
The match was due to be played at Scours Lane but both teams agreed to move the fixture to Binfield’s Hill Farm Lane ground after the heavy rain at the weekend.

Wallingford Town also face Step 5 opposition in the form of Ardley United. Wally make the trip to the Nolan Oils Ground having not played in over two weeks due to weather enforced postponements. Ardley currently sit 14th in the Hellenic Premier Division table.
The final game with local interest sees two of the Hellenic Division One East’s form sides clash as Holyport make the trip to face Burnham at the Gore.
Burnham are in imperious form; they are top of the table, have won 17 out of their last 18 games and have scored 111 goals in 30 games so far this season.
Holyport are on their own run of 9 wins in 11 games and sit 4th in the league table. The two sides also share 4 of the leagues’ top 5 goal-scorers, so it could be an entertaining night in Buckinghamshire.
