The first weekend league football match in Brigg since the lifting of Coronavirus lockdown restrictions is due to be played today (Sunday, April 11).
Scawby Rovers will be at Brigg Recreation Ground for a Scunthorpe Sunday League Division Four fixture against CDF Rep of Heslam (kick-off 10.30am).
At the same time, Barnetby United will be hosting Balin Sport at the village's Silver Street Ground, in Division Three.
The Sunday League's divisions WILL be played to a conclusion over the coming weeks, although the knockout cups have been scrapped.
Only two teams wanted to resume in Division One - top-ranked Broughton WMC and AFC Berkeley who will play twice in May to decide the destiny of the top-flight championship.
We understand that AFC Brigg elected not to restart, but Barnetby, Broughton, Scawby and Hibaldstow decided to resume play at this late stage in the 2020/21 campaign.
