The biggest change to this season’s competition comes in the monthly prizes of which their will be eight between ko in August and final whistle in May .

 

August will be a warm up month if you like with no monthly prize (although the weekly Lucky 13 competition will be in play), instead members will try to amass as many goals as possible in an attempt to increase their chances going forward .

 

The eight teams with the most league goals scored by midnight on Sunday 1^st September will enter the newly formed BELL PREMIER LEAGUE ; the eight next highest scorers will be entered into the BELL CHAMPIONSHIP , and finally the lowest scoring eight members on the above date will go into the BELL CONFERENCE . In the event of two members being level on goals at the time of the League formation , the member whose National League side has scored the most will be placed higher , if still level the League Two side with the most goals , then League One , then Championship , if still level a game of rock , paper , scissors will take place , or a toss of a coin , game of spoof or maybe dice , let's hope it doesn't go that far 

 

Then the fun begins , teams in each respective league will over the following predetermined period go head to head in a series of weekly fixtures , three points for a win , one for a draw , nothing for a loss . At the end of the period the leader of the BELL PREMIER LEAGUE will win £20 , the winner of the BELL CHAMPIONSHIP wins £15 and the top place in the BELL CONFERENCE wins £10.

 

But there is more , the bottom three members in the Bell Premier League on September 1^st will be relegated to the Bell Championship , whereas the bottom four members in the Bell Championship will be relegated to the Bell Conference . For balance, the top four members in the Conference will be promoted to the Championship , and the top three Championship members will find themselves in the Bell Premier for the next stage of fixtures .And so on and so forth until the end of the season , whilst all this is in play the yearly competition will play on in the background .
