    Hi Dave,

    As this is the end of the 3rd season since the came down from division 3 of the AIL they would have started to loose their ticket allocation etc. next season (when relegated you keep ticket allocation etc. for 3 seasons) . So its back up with full allocation.

    But yes the travel costs are a hugh burden on clubs.

    Cheers

    I think it makes a lot of sense to split divisions 2 and 3 into two regional divisions to try and save the huge travel cost burden on clubs. Keep division 1 as is.

    Congrats indeed - it's a very hard league to get out of. Winning the league is hard enough (think it went down to the last game this year, though Seapoint had a lot of work to do to even draw level on points), but the round robin is a killer. I played in it a few years ago and we lost our first two games by a point and 2 points respectively.

    Also good that a Leinster club went up. For the last couple of years I think it's been a Leinster AIL team that went down, and a non-Leinster team that got promoted, which meant the Leinster J1 league was getting bigger each year. That makes for a very long season.

    On the flip side, at least the clubs who go down get a couple years grace to get back up before losing their benefits though.
