Following many months of hard work and collaboration with our member clubs, we are overjoyed to confirm that the FA has formally approved our application to join the National League System as a Regional Feeder League status competition, known as Step 7 more commonly.
This officially repositions our league in the football pyramid to just one level below senior league football, opening the pathway for clubs in our region to finally be able to progress further up the pyramid.
Of course, this is far from the end of the journey, it's merely a new beginning and we look forward to working with all of our clubs to ensure we maintain the levels we have set thus far in reaching such a huge milestone for football in Metropolitan Essex and East London.
We should take this opportunity to thank all of our clubs who have worked tremendously hard to ensure they meet the ground grading requirements and also to Essex County FA for their support in completing our application.
Season 2021/22 is looking like being the most exciting yet!
