Bush Hill, Fleetlands, Infinity and Stockbridge are the clubs involved. The full list from the FA hasn’t been received yet, but we also hear rumours that Dorchester Sports and Hamworthy Recreation from the Dorset Premier League have acted similarly, but this is very much subject to official confirmation. Hopefully all this will become clearer before too long. Good luck to all those involved. PROGRAMME COMPETITION Clubs are reminded that it is a league requirement, that they MUST produce a programme for each home First Team game in the FA Cup, FA Vase, County Senior Cup, League and League Cup- and with that in mind a timely reminder again that we are running the Programme competition again this season. To enter simply send one League or League Cup programme produced for a game in December or January to the Newsletter Editor at the following address please.

Interesting to note that Division One shows more stability as it were with ten of the 21 still performing in the same division, but only just as there are eight still in the Premier then as opposed to now. Seven have dropped from the Premier to Division One and four have travelled in the opposite direction- AFC Portchester, Horndean, Shaftesbury and Tadley Calleva. A few clubs missing back then who have settled in with us, but we have lost seven going out of the trapdoor- either voluntarily or through FA intervention- Hayling United and Stockbridge are in the Hampshire Premier League, the latter have lodged their intention to seek promotion with the FA, so could possibly come back on board next term. AFC Aldermaston are currently in the Hellenic League, Brading Town ply their trade in the Isle of Wight leagues, Farnborough North End in the Aldershot league, Fleet Spurs in Combined Counties Division One and Warminster Town as one or two of our teams know from this season’s Buildbase FA Vase experiences are in Western Division One.
