6. Proposal Harris Academy
During season 2017/18 Division 2 and Division 3 will each have 10 teams unless there are changes before the season starts. The current situation regarding promotion and relegation is that one team is promoted from D3 and two teams relegated from D2. This was put into place over a period of two years in order to have an equal number of teams in each division.
Now that this is in place we would like to propose that there is a change in the rules regarding promotion/relegation. We would propose that top of D3 is promoted to D2 and bottom of D2 is relegated to D3. The 2nd top team in D3 and the 2nd bottom team in D2 would play-off for places in D2 and D3.
