Changes to the National League System 2018-2019

Season 2018-19 will see the biggest re-organisation since the NLS was formed with 2 completely new divisions being formed. One at step 3 and one at step 4.

The new step 3 division will be controlled by the Southern League while the new step 4 division will come under the Isthmian League.

This will mean there will be a total of 4 divisions at step 3 and 7 at step 4. There will obviously need to be a lot of sideways moves to spread the existing clubs more favourably (from a travelling point of view) but, crucially, it will mean 26 clubs instead of the usual 14 will need to be promoted from step 5 to step 4 at the end of the coming season to make up the required 20 teams per step 4 division.

Which clubs, other than champion sides, will be promoted is a difficult matter for the FA Leagues Committee to carefully consider at their meeting in May 2018. It does mean, however, that there is a possibility that more than one SCEFL club could be promoted at the end of this coming season (it will definitely not be more than 2).
