Coalville Town will be out of action for at least 10 days due to the Coronavirus spread.

All Southern League games between now and Sunday, March 22 are postponed as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak What Coalville Needs To Know About Coronavirus which has seen Premier League and EFL games called off until early April.

It means Coalville's trip to BetVictor Southern Premier Central League leaders Peterborough Sports on Saturday has been called off.

And their home match against Alvehcurch on March 21 also falls under that period of suspended fixtures.

Coalville, currently eighth in the table, are due to play at Biggleswade Town on March 24.

A statement on the League's website on Friday said: 'Further to discussions this afternoon, a decision has been taken that all Southern League matches will be postponed.

'A review of the situation will take place next Friday and everyone will be notified of the decision as soon as possible regarding the continuation or otherwise of the competition from Monday, March 23.

'In respect to the end of season date, that currently remains as Saturday, April 25, but there will be updates on this website should there be any changes to that.'
