The Herts Ad Sunday League saw their final day of fixtures in 2020 cancelled less than 24 hours from kick-off after the government's shock tier four announcement.
It ended a frustrating year for the league but one in which they still managed to get plenty of football played in spite of the complications.
And they have plans to ensure everyone in each division plays everyone else at least once, giving the league a chance to at least produce some sort of balanced finish in the event of another voided season.
The brief interlude between the November restrictions and the new tier four shutdown still saw some games played as well as the crowning of champions in two cup competitions.
Harpenden Colts OB Res and Skew Bridge lifted the trophies beating Blacksmiths Res in the Intermediate Cup and Blackberry Jacks in the Knockout Cup respectively.
There were limited changes in the goal-scoring charts too.
Ashley Kingston of Division Four side, The Wrestlers, still leads overall with 23 with team-mate Jack Kendrick-Gibson has 15.
