U7's and U8's

The under 7s and Under 8s are not permitted to play football in a league tabled format, that is the FA rule. That then creates the problem for the league administrators of how best to pair the teams so that the children play in a balanced fixture.

The league took the decision to record results to compare the scores and take that into consideration when deciding upon who should play who. The alternative to this is for fixtures to be allocated randomly!!!  For ease of administration the teams were put into unofficial groups, this was to make it easier for the administrators and teams to follow; there was no hidden agenda for creating an unofficial tiered league structure. There are no promotions or relegations, the system allows the league to move teams around based on results as the season progresses.  This is more favourable than having several teams stuck in a group where they can’t compete with the other teams for a whole season.

It is accepted that at times, especially in the first couple of months, there will be uneven fixtures but experience shows us that they become less as the season moves on. We do not have the infrastructure to analyse each fixture as to how close the games were and therefore teams may find themselves in a group for a set of games that they feel  is beneath their ability level and that the perception is that they have been relegated!! This perception is totally wrong and has never entered the equation when the fixtures are being arranged. By the time the teams reach Under 9s the majority are placed in the most appropriate division for their ability level at that time.

We ask that Clubs, Managers and Parents exercise patience and take a wider view of how and why the fixtures are processed in the way they are.

By the season 2013/14 we anticipate there will be no league structure for junior football from U7 to U10.

We would welcome any suggestions from member clubs who may have an alternative method or suggestion of arranging fixtures so that we can ensure the children play teams of equal ability.

Many Thanks

MLCJFL Committee
