I realise this is Mainland Premier League Thread but thought some of you might know...

Does anyone know if MF allow a team to enter Masters 3? Or does there need to be a space (to avoid a bye) etc? For instance I know new teams have to enter Div 6.

We're pretty much all eligible for Masters (4 or 5 of us actually only a couple of years away from the 45+ grade!), so are looking to move grades this coming season.

Last season we wanted to move from Pres A to Pres B and they flatly refused and when I said a number of our older guys found the number of young teams in Pres A tough and would likely give the game away if made to stay in Pres A, they replied saying they wouldn't budge, we had to stay in Pres A and that it would be 'unfortunate' if we gave the game away.

So they were happy for 15 guys to stop playing the game rather than allow us to drop down a grade.

Thoughts?
