[Football] League structure confirmed for 2019-20 onwards

Post by sick39ed »

Today, the Super League Football Association and Florian Football Association have agreed on the league structure to be used from the 2019-2020 season onwards.
It will be as follows:
FLORIAN FOOTBALL LEAGUE PYRAMID FROM 2019-2020 ONWARDS
Step 1 - Super League Football, 12 teams, 2 teams relegated. Relegation playoff between 10th placed team and 3rd placed SLF 2 team.
Step 2 - Super League Football 2 (NEW LEAGUE), 12 teams, 2 teams promoted, 1 team relegated. Promotion playoff between 10th placed SLF team and 3rd placed SLF 2 team.
Step 3 - Florian Championship (NEW LEAGUE) 12 teams, 2 teams promoted, 2 teams relegated.
Step 4 - Florian League One (NEW LEAGUE) 12 teams, 2 teams promoted.

After fierce competition between Florian FA affiliated clubs and Super League Football, clubs from both associations have agreed on a league structure and the creation of three new leagues creating a four-tier system. Super League Football will be cut to 12 teams. 8 teams from Super League Football will be relegated from the league and will be joined by four brand new franchises. From 2019-2020 onwards the two bottom SLF teams will be relegated and the two highest placed teams in SLF 2 will be promoted. Also the 10th placed SLF and 3rd SLF 2 will have a second chance to stay in or be promoted to SLF. Super League Football has also agreed with the Florian FA to include promotion and relegation between their affiliated leagues. The last placed team in SLF 2 will be relegated to the newly created Florian Championship which will include 12 teams comprising of semi-professional teams. The two bottom placed teams in the Florian Championship will be relegated to Florian League One, another newly created league. This league will also comprise of semi-professional teams.

This historic agreement means that promotion and relegation will be introduced into Florian football for the very first time. Ground grading for Super League Football and Florian FA clubs will be announced at a later date.
