Jun 2, 2019 — Secretary Annual Report 2019
Once again the League continues to grow, which in my opinion is only because the League tries to offer what the players want. Interestingly now 45% of the players in the League are over forty-five years old. This had me thinking about are we starting to see the impact of the decline in 11v11 football hitting the League. Looking back though we had nine divisions of over thirty-five football when the over forty-five division first started, so currently there doesn’t appear to be a decline in the younger divisions
