A number of Irish League matches scheduled for Saturday have been called off following pitch inspections.

Heavy rainfall over the past few days has left some grounds unplayable across the country with Dergview’s Championship home clash against H&W Welders at Darragh Park confirmed to be off.

Knockbreda’s encounter with Newington will also have to be arranged, as will Coagh United versus Limavady United in the Premier Intermediate League.
