I manage the Beer Leagues for 14 year. It started with one league, some seasons ago i made a league A and B. Now there's also a league C.
The bottom 3 teams of league A demote to league B.
In league B, the top 3 promotes to league A while the bottom 3 teams will demote to league C.
At this way the bottom teams of league A and B have something to fight for, so they also stay much more active during the second half of the season.


There are some free slot for league B.


The most important is to stay active and kind, it's still a game. Beware that the level is high, and there is always a chance that you can get demoted. If that's the case, please demote and don't quit. It's part of this system.

So because teams promote or demote every season, this can't be a keeper league. We start every season with clean sheets.
