There is a policy.
2. ELIGIBILITY
(a) All member clubs of the League are eligible to enter one or more of the competitions.
(b) Clubs competing in those divisions which are defined as requiring the fielding of a reserves team shall field a reserves team in that competition.
(c) Except as provided at 2(b) above, no club shall have more than one team in the same division of a league.

Sorry mate who am i to upstage you.
That may well be the policy but its not clear about how the deal with it when both teams from the same club are eligible for promotion.

Just checked competition rules on website 2 down 2 up rule here ...thirds teams not to be promoted...there in black and white !
so clubs like flinders etc have more then one "A" team? not only that , they can now play against each other in the same div??
am i getting that right?

All has been restored .... It was a draft copy they had published ... Not everything is right ..
But was told on Friday night that we were in div 4 ...

Now I'm totally confused even if it is only a draft copy. Noarlunga told they are in div 4 which they were already in. Maybe a typo? Should it be Div 3 & Blue Nile in Div 4?

Surely it's a typo. Cos it just don't make any sense 3 teams go up 1st, 2nd and 5th. What The!
no idea... just hope there is no fked up teams that will fight every time the ref blows the whistle for the other team....
Couldn't agree more. Get on with the football. I thought there was a side a fees years ago called Central Ghan who got banned then changed their name to Maiwand.

Because they now have two teams?????
What's wrong with division 4 then?
McLaren Districts finished bottom of Div 3 in 2010, played in Div 6 in 2011, Div 5 last year and now straight to Div 3! They should have to start where all two team clubs start, in Div 4.

It appears at this point that Division 4 may be a division without a reserve league. A couple of the teams who had both a firsts and reserves side (I'm looking at Northern Pitbulls) have a second team in Division 7.
If you look at the list of clubs compared to last year:
Angkor: Promoted
USC Lions: Promoted
Flinders: Division 3 with reserves in Division 7
One Tree Hill: Division 4
Torrens Valley: Division 4
Old Ignatians': Division 4 (x2?)
Greenock Town: Not in the list
Northern Pitbulls: Division 4 with reserves in Division 7
Mount Compass: Division 5
East Adelaide: Division 4
Adelaide University: Division 4
Parafield Gardens: No Saturday Team
That's only 6 teams remaining across seasons, with new entrants of Adelaide Cobras, Strathalbyn, and Simba Heroes.

Div 6 in 2011 wasn't the same as Div 6 in 2012.[/quote]
In principle I agree and I am informed that both MDSC coaches expected to be in Div 4 for 2013 - seems to me the whole system is farked. I am also informed that MDSC were promoted from div6 in 2011 and won div5 in 2012 so should have some form. It may be a league too high, but who knows? MDSC, as all of the teams are just there to play football whatever league - its pretty immaterial - they are hardly going to challenge for the Premier title any time soon!!!!
