COUNCIL pitches will be in use this weekend - providing they are fit.

Kirklees officials have decided not to follow last week's blanket postponement with another this time.

It means local-league matches on Saturday and Sunday will take place at the discretion of referees.

A spokesperson for Cultural and Leisure Services said: "After a general improvement in the weather we have agreed the leave the decision on whether pitches are playable or not to referees."
