All six of the area’s senior football teams had their matches postponed due to the freezing conditions, including Hastings United’s scheduled visit from Tooting & Mitcham United.

The entire ADA East Sussex Football League programme was wiped out and it was the same story in the PCM Hastings & East Sussex Sunday Football League.

All of the matches in rugby’s Kent One were called-off for the second weekend running, notably Hastings & Bexhill’s scheduled clash away to leaders Gillingham Anchorians.

South Saxons’ top-of-the-table clash away to Horsham II in South Hockey League Sussex Area - Division One was another casualty, although two matches elsewhere in the division did go ahead.
