National League Rugby in England is facing significant disruptions due to freezing weather conditions. Following a two-week break for the Christmas period, widespread frost and snow have led to the postponement of several matches in National League 1. Notably, four matches have been called off, including the Rams' trip to Sale FC, which was set to be a crucial encounter for both teams.

Other postponed matches include Bishop's Stortford against Birmingham Moseley, Darlington Mowden Park versus Richmond, and Leicester Lions taking on Plymouth Albion. Despite these cancellations, some fixtures are still expected to go ahead. Rosslyn Park will host Blackheath at their 4G pitch at The Rock, aiming to build on their recent form after ending Richmond's unbeaten streak before Christmas.

Rotherham Titans, currently in third place, have the opportunity to climb to the top of the division if their match against Esher proceeds, as they trail leaders Richmond by just four points. Additionally, Sedgley Park will face Dings Crusaders on an artificial surface at Shaftesbury Park, looking to extend their unbeaten run throughout December. The weather has certainly impacted the league's schedule, but matches on artificial surfaces are more likely to proceed as planned.
