Following Election of Officers and Committee Members, entries for the forthcoming season were considered by all the club representatives, with two returning club accepted back into the league – Derrychara United (Enniskillen) & St Patrick’s (Castlederg). On a sad note Glebe United informed the league that they had decided not to re-enter the league and have applied to join the North West Junior League instead. We would like to wish them well and have enjoyed them as part of our league for the past 15 years.
There was 12 team eligible for entry to Division 1, 8 to Division 2 and 11 accepted entries to Division 3, which clearly meant there was an imbalance, therefore the management committee have decided to promote Fivemiletown United II to Division 2 in an attempt to rebalance the division. In the Reserve Divisions, there were 9 team eligible for entry to Reserve Division 1, 10 to Reserve Division 2 and 10 to Reserve Division 3.
The management committee made the decision in an attempt to further rebalance the Divisions, that there will be 3 promotion places available in Division 3 for the 2019-2020 season, as well as in Reserve Division 2 and Reserve Division 3. Hopefully this will lead to a split of 12 teams in Division 1, 10 teams in Division 2, 9 teams in Division 3, 10 teams in Reserve Division 1, 10 teams in Reserve Division 2 and 9 teams in Reserve Division 3 for the 2020-2021 season, if all teams re-enter. By doing this, it will create an more balance split across the divisions, as well as creating spaces for new clubs/teams to entry Division 3 and Reserve Division 3 in the future.
