Local league transfer query

    Lads can I have some opinions on this please.

    In a schoolboy league a club have 2 teams entered, the format of the league is that initially you have group stages where top teams make it to the top tier of two groups of 5 and a lower tier of 2 groups of 5.
    In the second group stage there is a playoff between the top 4 teams of each group where 1st of group a play 4th in group b etc etc.

    The question is given the fact that there is only 1 winner of the league that being the playoff winner, should the club with 2 teams be allowed to have the pick of both teams if 1 team fails to make the playoff. Bear in mind the both teams made it through to the top tier of the league after the midway cut.

    One team should be classed the 'A' side and one should be classed the 'B'. The B players should be allowed play for the A team but not the other way round. It's how the DDSL works anyways.

    This.

    Depending on what league it is. A smart way of getting around it is to register your best team as your B' team and the rest as A'. That way if somehow your B' team get knocked out you can move them to the A's.

    Down here they had a rule that B' team players could only play 5 games for the A' team before they were ineligible to play for the A' team again though.

    Is the correct answer. Unfortunately, this will not be the case as usually the manager in question is aiming to become a premiership manager in 3 - 4 years.

    In the DDSL does the A and B team compete in the same league ? We do have another league in the same age group for the B teams (those players can move up to the stronger league but not back down),

    In this case this would be the Clubs second strong team in the main league and they would have a third team in the weaker league. The teams in question could would possibly come up against each other in the season.

    IMO its a club with two teams in 1 league all season but at the end of the year taking all the good players to 1 team after the second team is knocked out.

    No, they are everywhere, completely forgetting that at schoolboy/youth level, the job is to coach players.
