2021–22 Southern Football League

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
League season

The2021–22 Southern Football League season was the 119th in the history of theSouthern League since its establishment in 1894. The league had two Premier divisions (Central and South) at Step 3 of theNational League System (NLS) and two Division One divisions (Central and South) at Step 4. These correspond to levels 7 and 8 of theEnglish football league system.

The allocations for Step 4 this season were announced byThe Football Association (FA) on 17 May 2021.[1]

The scheduled restructuring of the non-League system took place at the end of the 2020–21 season and a new division was added to theNorthern Premier League at Step 4 for 2021–22,[2] which resulted in some reallocations into or out of, and promotions to, the Southern League's Step 4 divisions.[2]

Step 4

[edit]

Ten of the 16 clubs atStep 4, all eight fourth-from-bottom teams and two clubs placed third-from-bottom, one at the top and the other in third place on a points per game (PPG) basis, were reprieved from contesting relegation play-offs. The FA granted third-placed Sheffield a reprieve after demotingYorkshire Amateur from the Northern Premier League for non-compliance with Step 4 ground grading requirements.[8] The remaining six teams contested one-off matches with six runners-up from Step 5 that had the fewest PPG at the end of the 2021–22 season. Three winners of their matches stayed at Step 4 for the 2022–23 season, while three others lost theirs and were relegated to Step 5.[7]
