Championship Rules to determine league places
The aim is to avoid using score difference at this level.
•       Where two teams are tied on points:
o       Head-to-head rule will determine finishing position (and can result in a team being eliminated from a competition)
o       Where head-to-head fails to separate the teams (they drew in their game).
       If the two teams are progressing in the competition, a draw will take place to determine their position
       If only one of the teams can progress, a playoff will take place
•       Where more than two teams are tied on points:
o       If all teams are progressing, a draw will take place to determine positioning
o     If all teams are not progressing, a draw to progress teams with a playoff for the last remaining place.

O If 3 team finish level on points and only 1 team can progress then 2 Play-off games will be required
NOTE ANY OR ALL PLAY-OFF GAMES IF REQUIRED WILL HAVE TO BE FITTED IN BETWEEN THE LAST ROUND OF GAMES AND THE ¼ DATES WITH THE CO- OPERATION OF THE CLUBS INVOLVED.
