Level 7-6 / 6-5 Promotion

Afternoon all, can anyone confirm if women's adult games count towards your promotion? I've been refereeing 5 years but now have the time to go through the promotion criteria, more so the admin side of things. I was hoping for a double jump this year the only restriction will getting all the games in with need 2 x 25 middles and 2 x 5 AR. I know I can use 10 junior middles for the 7-6 promotion. Women's footy is played Sunday afternoon so there is opportunity for more middles. Will women's football count providing it's open age?

Feedback appreciated of any kind, although I'd prefer an accurate answer rather than a best guess... Cheers in advance!

My understanding of the changes brought into the promotion pathway this year are that:

You can still do both pathways at the same time (4W-3W)/(7-6)

but

It's now a case of mens games count on the mens pathway exclusively, and womens games on the womens pathway exclusively.

RDO is best person to clarify this with to be 100%

My understanding is the complete opposite of @george.g ... you can't apply for both pathways at the same time, but men's and women's games are still eligible to count towards either.

Open age women’s games count towards your total for 7-6 and 6-5 (at least where I am anyway)

This is correct. Adult games most definitely count, regardless of gender

The only bit I am unsure of since the changes is whether the five lines for 6-5 have to be open age, or whether they can be u18 etc

Each applicant should contact their RDO as each County has a list of acceptable competitions for applicants to use.
