It goes without saying that this is a difficult time for many grassroots clubs.
Whilst thousands of volunteers up and down the country continue to put in the hard yards, rising costs - both at home and in clubs themselves - mean many will find themselves stretched even further than usual.
In situations like this, it’s often the case that any special or big project a grassroots club has planned, such as new equipment, an upgrade to facilities, or even simply a new kit, will be put on pause.
