Teams to play each other once then the division splits in two.

With 14 teams at U14s this season it's not really enough for two divisions and too many for one division playing each twice (26 games when the season only has 32 Sundays). Therefore teams will be in one division, playing each other ONCE initially before the division splits in two with the top group going onto play each other a second time (carrying forward ALL points gained from first half of season) - and the bottom group breaking away to also play each other a second time. The second meeting for the bottom group will form a qualifying phase for an extra cup competition. Where the division splits will be decided by the Management Committee, but it is expected to be either top 6 and bottom 8, or top 8 and bottom 6. In addition there will be the Major Cup and Tamworth Invitation Cup.
