Third in Herts-Middlesex Merit Table Five last season behind unbeaten Finsbury Park, the opportunity arose after the latter were promoted two divisions to Herts-Middlesex Merit Table Three.

Consequently, two teams have been promoted to Herts-Middlesex Merit Table Division Four with Belsize Park IVs joining Ignatians in the higher division.

The new fixture list for the 2016-17 season will also take in games against Biggleswade IIs, Black Horse, Fullerians IIIs, Hendon IIs, Letchworth IIIs, Tring IIIs, Watford IIs and Welwyn IIIs.

Meanwhile, Enfield Ignatians' IIs will continue life in Herts-Middlesex Merit Table Two with the first team, as already reported, preparing for a second consecutive campaign in London Two North-West.

The blue and golds are seeking to bolster their ranks with new recruits. The club welcomes players of all abilities and applicants are asked to contact Keir Bonnar in the first instance at keirbonnar@hotmail.co.uk.
