If a team gets to good for a division then it could move up right? So I think from what I have heard people are in favour of some sort of division system. Along the lines of having 12 teams in the top division I think this would be almost going back to the old traditional format of tournies, as for example Catch, UTI, Chevvy and whatever Gun become would easily beat the teams who came 10th-11th-12th. So we would be back to the bagel's on the Saturday and everything to play for on the Sunday. I am simply saying that the top division cannot be more than a certain size because otherwise the games become ludicrous. By all means make the lower divisions bigger and so more competitive.
