Manchester Football League
This was put in place in the hope of keeping all teams playing regularly as opposed to the old structure which meant teams could go without a fixture for a few weeks at a time.The Premier Division has a promotion and relegation arrangement with the North West Counties Football League (NWCFL), placing it at level 11 of the English football league system.Teams such as Salford City, Maine Road and Northern Nomads have all played in the league at some point.The latest teams to make the step up were Prestwich Heys, Avro and most recently Stockport Georgians.Following the introduction of the Coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) national lockdown restrictions in March 2020, the 2019/20 season was unable to be completed and was therefore declared null and void.
