Our league - the Moore & Smalley Palace Shield is joining up with the Northern League for 2018, with two of our sides going into the NPL, as 1st XIs can get promoted from the Palace Shield Prem Div into the Northern League. One team - Fulwood & Broughton - have signed Simon Kerrigan as pro - although not sure how many games he'll play... The NPL 2nd XIs are in Div 1B, with the remaining 1st XIs in 1A, thus being able to get promoted to the Prem. So you have NPL, Prem, Div 1A, Div 1B, followed by Dvs 2 to 6. Then we have Sunday Div 1 and Sunday Div 2, with Div 2 split geographically as it's mainly for youngsters making their way from junior cricket into open age cricket.
NPL sides can have a paid pro, with as many overseas amateurs as they like. The PS teams can't have pros, but can have one overseas amateur.
