    The draw for the first section of the season is out.One round against all teams.No word on what happens after than.Nothing on pre-season cup/trials yet either.

    14 teams in Div 1, 8 in Div 2. How they are going to work out part 2 of the draw still seems a mystery. Drop 2 teams or 4? Id almost be happy with 10 in Div 1 and 12 in Div 2 for 2nd half of the season.Theres no right or wrong answer I guess.

    Based on some of the bile that spews forth from your posts historically, your comment here is as relevant as your comments ever are. Thanks for clarifying.

    At the season mid point I think it ends up as:
    League A = 8
    League B = 8
    League C = 6

    6 is an average number for a comp

    8 8 6 is a decent comp formation. 6 team comp wraps up first.

    Granted It does mean only 2 teams would be "promoted" to the NPL div2 but at least its still some reward.

    Current format is a farce

    Having a fair idea who the teams are that would be grouped for part 2 of the season, 8/8/6 seems fairest. The top 2 teams in NL1 will do well against the bottom 6 NPL clubs. No getting around the fact that even the bottom 2 clubs in the top 8 will be in for some rough days. Some of the 'relegated' NPL teams should be happy with this format.

    Good to see the fed having a go at something different.

    Seeing lots of trial games being registered, good to see clubs doing a bit of travel to play against different teams from out of the area.

    The pre-season youth cup draw has been partially released.Groups of 4 teams in a round robin format.It looks like the 12 NPL teams from 2 years ago are in the first 3 groups,New Lambton and Cooks Hill have been grouped with the 8 NL1 clubs so there are byes in some of the groups.No idea how any finals structure will work.

    Sorry I was shown it on another parents phone tonight.It was on an app I'd never used before.They were forwarded it from their club.I am assuming all clubs would have that information by now.No idea why theyve separated New Lambton and Cooks Hill.Agree its not great.

    edit:the app is called squaddie.I think thats how its spelt.

    Isport was best. Compact, less clicks, all tables on one page if wanted.
