At at guess, looking at Mitchell Park, their Sect3 side finished bottom, thus moving to Sect4.
If Haven's got relegated from Sect1 and Mitchell Park stayed up in Sect1, then Mitchell Park's teams would be Sect1, Sect4 and Sect5. That's a huge jump from B's to A's for their players.
At least NH have a team in each section and for players coming up through the grade there isn't that kind of huge grade jump.
Then again, I'm biased.
There was a rumour going around that Mitchell Park was going to asked to be demoted from Section 1 anyway. Not sure how truthful it is.
As for our Sect 2 side, would the association allow 2 teams from the same club in a Section other than 6?
FYI our Sect 2 side should be more competitive next year, I hope
