Should regional lockdown finish at the end of this week, Wagga and District Junior Football League (WDJFNL) will hold semi finals this Sunday, before the grand final a week later.
A seven-day extension to lockdown would push the schedule back into the following week. If there is any further delays, a mid-week grand final in the weeks starting on September 20 or 27 will be considered.
In the South West Junior Football and Netball League, a grand final will be played on September 18 if there are no further lockdown extensions.
