4W to 3W promotion

Hi guys - toying with the idea of going down the women's pathway.

Wondering if I can apply (and try and complete ) my 4W to 3W in next window or whether this needs to be done at the start of the season .

Cheers

Also if it was a case of next season (my 2nd full season) is that likely to be too soon for me?

Reading that it is equivalent of 5-4 mens so now feeling a little unsure !
 
I believe it is a seasonal process and you're meant to have applied by now, but ask your RDO.
The promotion requirements are certainly more stringent than for 7-6 or 6-5 so would not rush into it unless reasonably confident about your performance.
I believe it is no longer possible to apply for promotion on both the men's and women's pathways at the same time. The FA prefers referees progressing on the women's pathway who want to dedicate themselves to women's football rather than operate in both women's and men's, so bear that in mind also.
