We have asked to in the prem, who knows if they let us in?

the divisions havent been decided and definately need some alterations but you were shown as being Div 2 if NCL A Teams are included and Div 1 without NCL A Teams. I think they will change drastically myself.

The key question is how the interim season is used - if it is to 'grade' sides then you've the chance to show you should be higher etc.. Most important from my point of view is that it is used to test whether sides actually have the numbers to put out a team. Certainly some sides included have struggled this summer or in previous winters and in no way should they be put higher up than teams who know they can field a side every week.

yeah were not 100% sure were going in the Interim season, lads vote this sat!

The way were playing at the min I feel were good enough!! I know whats said on here about us having Mayfield players and Fijians but its all carp, the Fijians yes but then they will be here come next season anyhow!! We go to Cadishead this Saturday with 20 lads who are committed to the cobras full time and thats been the case for the last 2 games.....having loads of new lads from other clubs doesn't work as we found out at the start of the season (hence the two early losses) we now only pick cobras lads for the 1sts

was made very clear last night that to play in the summer season you MUST have completed commitments to any other season including NWC. We played you in May in a NWC game once because the NWC over-ran...given the March 3 start date for the summer season it's a very awkward decision you've got on Saturday!

Bell me later if you want more info.

oh yeah we know, spoke to J.Mc about it, were voting whether to play interim or just leave it till after xmas for the pre-season for the summer league, risky I know especially with 'other' local clubs after 4 of our players but its up to the lads!

I'm told that Bank Quay have arranged a player loaning system with St Maries for the interim period and the loans are to be reciprocated when summer comes around. Not sure how true it is or if there are any registration issues but that's what I'm told.

slightly worried me that last night. suggestion was you could have a primary and secondary club as a player and then be available for the secondary when the primary club wasnt playing. not sure it works well if the aim is to maximise overall participation.

by all accounts newton have folded as of tonight


im trying to start up a team in billinge so if anyones interested let me know haha

From general conversation with other clubs, the numbers quoted in the leagues are unlikely. I'd expect 3 divisions at best including the merit league style development league.

my worry is that by using the interim season as an assesment of what level a club should be at you will get false scorelines dependent on who is and who is not available during the summer months and also heavy scorelines that could put off new players.

Nothing has been agreed by the board at Bank Quay with regard to loaning players to Widnes St Maries or any other winter based clubs, we want all of our players performing for us during the interim season as this will give our A team a true grading level for 2012, we expect that our 1st team will be based in Prem but is important for our A team players that they play at the correct level.

hey,
im trying to get into the amature game, and just trying to find out a few facts, im a little confused,
does the amature game play in summer now like the sl and the championships?
or is it still a winter game?
do players come and go thoughout the season, are you tied to one team for a season?
i realise they are porb really really daft questions
ive never really played amature level as an adult, last time i player was at uni - 6 years ago,

Thanks for any help

still a North West amateur competition which will run from September of March/April

will be a new summer comp starting March which will run to November - many of the sides entering that are also playing a transitional season from September to November this winter only.

Clubs are having to pick which set up to be in.

To play for a club you need to be registered for insurance reasons. To then chnage clubs, you need to get a transfer signed by the club you're leaving, teh one you're joining, and yourself. Most clubs are pretty happy to do this but if you owe monies etc. then be prepared for the one you are at to say no.

ps. feel free to come down to Bury
