Format

Fixtures schedule to be advised shortly after entry deadline

The possibilities for dividing up competition divisionally (by ability and/or small-large school designation) will be explored. However in moving to the Tanbridge astroturf  to reduce the risk of rain cancellation because of ground conditions a downside is that we are limited to a maximum of 4 pitches which does constrain formatting options. 

For the purpose of using the leagues as a qualification basis for subsequent schools FA small and large school competitions if it is not possible to separate the teams on this basis then the highest placed small and large school teams in the overall process will be offered the opportunity.
