Following Cinderford Town's decision to decline promotion to the Southern Premier League, there have been some changes to the league constitution. Cinderford stay in our division and Evesham United move sideways into the Northern League. All promoted and relegated clubs remain where they were.

The full Southern League statement is here.

Today the FA announced the league constitutions for steps 1-4.

There are some changes in our league: Bashley and Burnham were relegated and Marlow have shifted sideways into the Central Division. Instead we will face old Western League friends Barnstaple Town as well as ex-Premier division Paulton Rovers and Bideford. The two other promoted sides are both phoenix clubs - Hereford and Salisbury.

The league season starts on 6th August and we expect the fixtures to be released in July. More as we have it!

Up the Larks!
