Playoff Division 1 & 2
If two 1st XI Teams finish in positions 1 & 2 in Division Two, they will both be promoted to Division 1 automatically. Teams in position 9 & 10 in Division 1 are demoted.
If only one 1st XI Team finishes in either position 1 or 2 in Division Two, that team will be promoted and the team in position 10 in Division One will be demoted. The next highest ranked 1st XI team in position 3-8 in Division Two has the option to playoff against the 9th placed team in Division One.
If no 1st XI Team finishes in position 1 or 2 in Division Two, the highest ranked 1st XI team from position 3-8 has the option to playoff against the team position 10 in Division One.
The above rule may have no effect due to the IHL, however the playoff match will be played just in case. If two 1st XI Teams finish in positions 1 & 2 in Division Two, they will both be promoted to Division 1 automatically. Teams in position 9 & 10 in Division 1 are demoted.
If only one 1st XI Team finishes in either position 1 or 2 in Division Two, that team will be promoted and the team in position 10 in Division One will be demoted. The next highest ranked 1st XI team in position 3-8 in Division Two has the option to playoff against the 9th placed team in Division One.
If no 1st XI Team finishes in position 1 or 2 in Division Two, the highest ranked 1st XI team from position 3-8 has the option to playoff against the team position 10 in Division One.
It is anticipated that any playoff match will take place on the week starting Monday 16th March. However, the end of the season is very tight with Leinster Cup matches & IHA Cup matches. The Mens Committee will determine a date that is fair to all once both participants are known.
