Ipswich Witches’ clash at Peterborough tomorrow night is off.
Peterborough bosses have taken an early decision to postpone the clash, the club have acted on of the advice of several weather forecasts, which all indicate that persistent rain is expected during the afternoon and evening.
They have therefore called the meeting off to prevent inconvenience for all parties.
A new date for the match, which is still a significant one for the Panthers, is to be confirmed.
Although Lakeside wrapped up top spot in the Southern group with their 45-44 win at Ipswich on Saturday, the semi-final place for the best group runners-up could still be available for the Panthers if they defeat the Witches in the re-staging.
The Witches entertain Newcastle in their opening Championship clash on Thursday night at Foxhall Stadium, but will be without Nico Covatti, who has damaged ribs and is set for a spell on the sidelines.
