League Arrangements Each of the 14 teams will play all the others once (13 games). After which the list will be split into two divisions of 7 team. Each of the teams in these divisions will play each other once more (6 games). Total 19 games.
Return to index
Cup Arrangements There are 14 teams in the competition. There will be a preliminary round of 6 games which will reduce the number to 8 teams. These teams will play one round (Round 1), then semi finals and a final. All teams knocked out in the Preliminary Round and Round 1 are automatically entered into the Consolation Cup (RACE Cup). All matches in the Preliminary Round and Round 1 will consist of two games (home and away). This may be reduced depending on the backlog of fixtures. Away goals will NOT count double. If necessary the second game will be played to a finish, ie with extra time and penalties.

The League Cup The teams were divided into three sections. The teams were to play all the other teams in their section once. The winner of each section and the best runner up were to play off semi finals and a final. Section A: Bellvue, Whales, MorUtd and Lepra Section B: Ladywell, Port S, FMHead, Loaned and ChaCha. Section C: Bxburn, Barclay, Gorgie, Niddri and Blackhall.
BIG CHANGE: As there were so many weeks lost to the bad weather; it became evident that there was not have enough time to finish the programme before June. So the League Cup was foreshortened. The best 8 teams from the 3 sections on 6 April were put in to a knock out competition.

The Fair Play Award Points will be given each time an offence is committed. The team with the least points at the end of the season will be presented with the Fair Play Award. In the event of a tie the winner will be decided by the Association Secretary. The points system For a caution / yellow card 1 point For a sending off / red card 3 points For a suspension 2 points per game For touchline cautions and more serious offences points will be awarded by the disciplinary committee. EXAMPLES (1) If a player is sent off for a minor offence which carries a 1 game suspension he scores (3+2) = 5 points. (2) If a player is sent off for a more serious offence and is suspended for 2 games he scores (3+2x2) = 7 pts. (3) If a player is sent off for two cautions in a match and is therefore suspended for one game he scores (3+2) = 5 points. (4) If a player is suspended for one game for accumulating 3 cautions in different matches he will score 1 point each time he is cautioned plus 2 points for the suspension; total 5 points. . . . . . and so on!

Notes of 2013 AGM The key points were Start date - 17th August (Ian to contact Kevin Kelly regarding fixtures) League fees - £390 per team Subs - we agreed 5 per game as that's the amateur rules Pitches - we should try for 10am on grass but teams need to be flexible on pitches and ko times. Any teams being awkward could face losing the fixture 3-0 unless good reasons can be presented. Competitions - league of 20 games with no split and the 3 existing cup competitions New Teams - No new teams at present. Agreed to a cut off date of the 30th June for any new teams to register their intention to play. Barclay, Niddrie and Chapel all leaving. Ref fees - 40 quid Tam will continue to sort discipline and refs but wants 250 for it. That was agreed. Neil from Port Seton to chat to a friend about having finals at Whitehill Welfare ground potentially on Friday nights rather than Saturday morning to ensure a good pitch. Games to be cancelled on finals day and encourage others to attend the final. Barclay to be asked to register their players if they want to play in the cups to avoid just inviting players to play which could be anybody. The committee should be the club secretaries like what we had last night so we all have input and we can vote on things if there is no agreement. Need to get the registration process underway as soon as we can in order to make it easier for us. League sponsor - I have approached my contact and others will think about some other options but thought it was a good idea. Website - Scott McDonald to speak with Jeff Gray about options for a website with a forum section for club secretaries to have any discussion necessary to cut down the amount of meetings that we may need to have.
