Mandatory RelegationsFor all County Leagues

The last placed team of the WEPL 2015 Tier 3 Glos/Wilts Div will be placed in 2016 Tier 4, i.e. County Div 1

The last placed team of the WEPL 2015 Tier 4 Glos Div will be placed below Tier 4 in 2016, i.e. County Div 2

WEPL Glos Div and GCCL Div 1

Most of the teams in 2015 WEPL Glos Div (8 or 9 of them) will go up to the new WEPL Glos Div at Tier 3.

The team that comes last in 2015 WEPL Glos Div will go to GCCL Division 2.

Any others, except 10th place will go to GCCL Division 1. Tier 4.

There could be a vacancy in the new Glos Div Tier 3 – the GCCL Champion will then go up.

WEPL 2nd XIs

AT THE END OF 2015 SEASON:• WEPL will do promotion & relegation as if there was to be no

change• Top 4 teams in Prem 1 2nd XI go to new Tier 3, staying in WEPL• Rest of Prem 1 2nd XI go to Tier 4 (i.e. County League Div 1)• Prem 2 2nd XI’s go in a block to a County League Division• Glos/Wilts 2nd XI’s ….ditto….• Glos Div 2nd XI’s ….ditto….

Each County League determines the best level for each of these blocks of teams

7

WEPL 2nd XIs – levels in GCCLWe have very good evidence that shows the Gloucester Division 2nd XI teams are mostly at the level of the top half of our current Division 5 / bottom half of Division 4. So that is the right place for them.

The 2nd XIs from higher WEPL Divisions therefore go in at points above that.

At the end of 2015 in GCCL we can’t do normal promotion and relegation because we must fit in all the new teams from WEPL.

We need to rank all our teams on a single ladder and fill up each new Division using this ordering.

The order needs to reward teams that would have been promoted, to place them among the teams in the Division above.

CGF Division will be part of GCCL in 2015 but from 2016 may be run jointly by West Glos and Chelt & Glos Districts rather than GCCL.

13

WHAT NOW?GCCL will talk with Districts and representatives of the CGF Division to discuss whether we have 70 or 60 teams in GCCL, including or excluding District winners and CGF winners.

We also need to consult the teams joining from WEPL about playing regulations and facilities criteria.

Information

This Presentation and the hand-outs will be on the GCCL web site. Ask your club members to look out for it.

Our normal monthly newsletters will give further news.

15

Once 2015 games start there will be a display on the web, updated through the season, showing who will go where depending on the current League positions.

The display will show the whole of WEPL and all the County leagues

Everyone will be able to see, with this, how they are currently faring and what would happen if they moved up in their division or down.
