The draws will be completed this week.

So the ins and outs for 2nd division are:

OUT: UTS Green, NorWest, Macq Uni and St Clair

The U/18 Premier Cup has 9 teams, so they get the bye whereas the Challenge Cup has 8 and thus no bye.

So overall, Premier Division has gained one senior & reserve team. First Division has lost two senior & reserve teams and gained one. Second Division has had a net loss of 2 teams. So overall, there are 2 less senior teams than last year.
A brighter story in the Under-18s. Premier Cup and Challenge Cup have each had a net gain of one team.
