The Sportsfield was due to host the eagerly-anticipated second versus first clash in County League Division 1, but the pitch has failed an inspection this afternoon.

Efforts to get the game on had seen Littlehampton committee members put covers over some areas of the pitch on Tuesday night, and spend a considerable amount of time today forking the surface.

The pitch, however, was declared waterlogged at around 3pm.
