That was the b team
The Management Committee are proposing following changes to our Junior Divisions:
Seasons 2013/14 & 2014/15 3 teams will be relegated from Junior Premier to Junior 1, with 2 teams been promoted.
3 Teams will be relegated from Junior 1 to 1A, with 2 been promoted.
For Season 2015/16 Junior Premier Division will consist of 10 teams. Junior 1 will consist of 10 Teams with remaining teams in Junior 1A.
Promotion & Relegation between 3 Junior Divs will revert to 2 up, 2 down from Season 2015/16.
Is there a difference between Division 1 and 1A this season?
For the past couple of years both have been the 1st division but just split into 2 groups. Under the new proposals division 1A will effectively be the 2nd division from next season on.
How will they decide which teams go into which division?
It looks like that is what they are proposing similar too the AUL Premier & Premier A. I would assume the teams will be decided on last season finish placed. Top few teams from each section in Division 1 Bottom half of both divisions in Division 1A. It looks like a much better set up IMO.
The proposal is for the 2013/2014 season so I assume it will take effect immediately
So are the 2 first division leagues going to be like a 2nd and 3rd division , as I understand that they are on a par at the moment only decided on where about a your based ?
Ya at the moment league 1&1A are just different sections with both winners getting promotion. As best I can tell from that proposal the Premier stays the Premier. Junior 1 will be Division 1 and Junior 1A will be Divison 2 just like the Senior divisions. How they'll decide which which teams make up Division 1 & 1A I don't know was only guessing.
This is a good move in my opinion, only difficulty with this will be deciding who plays in the "second division " the first year. This should really help to make all aspects of the league more competitive
Under the old format as soon as a team pulled clear at the top teams had nothing too play with only first being promoted and no relegation seasons fizzled out. This should help improve things in that aspect!
Have Fermoy no Junior team this year? The sections for all leagues are updated now
I was fearful that they wouldn't be able to field a Junior team this season and it seems there won't be one. After the disaster that was last season people left and don't seem to want to come back.
I would've loved to have gotten back involved and try out a squad together but just don't have the time with work.
Gutted that in just over a year we've gone from winning the 1st Division to not having a team.
That was a good side that won division 1. Where are socks and alan playing ball now? The 2 best players in that side IMO
Alan is back from Park and training with the seniors again. If able to commit to it he's a top player. But like Dec o Connell at the hall he hasn't had time to train last two seasons with commitments.
No idea where Socks has got to. Very young side now in the seniors, some good youths coming along.
Re junior team the club has decided to concentrate on the senior squad and add in some new younger players to that team. A lot of Eric's title winning team two seasons back are either abroad with army or can't commit or have Been pulled up senior. Max of 16 training these days at pre season so if the players can't be committed then why should the club.
The above is all opinion and based on personal experience. Unless stated otherwise it is not a dig at anybody, well probably none of you lot.
Takes a bit of courage to do what Fermoy have done and withdrawn the Junior side to try and give seniors as much support as possible. A lot of clubs would have entered the junior team and hoped they'd get through and pick up players along the way, Fair Play Fermoy!
Any news on the junior front this season lads? Any teams after strengthen their squad enough to challenge Douglas or ringmahon? Who'll be the surprise package of the season? I think rockmount could challenge this season.
From what I was told (could be all bull) Rockmount are struggling at Junior level. I Know the Hall have lost at least 2 of last seasons squad and upto last weeks training hadnt replaced them.
Will the League have Ringmahon A v B games early in the season or how will it work? I mean could you imagine the outcry if last game of the season Ringmahon A are playing The B team and say The A need a point for the league and the B need a point too stay up and the game finishs 0-0.
At the moment won't be much of a concern A team rebuilding with a few of the youth prem winning side from a couple years ago and B team looking fairly strong with 21 or 22 very decent players so prob mid table all round!!
Where are Ringmahons players from last season gone?
