Am I the only one not to be promoted?
Supply League Referees List (Level 4)
Following the Level 5-4 promotion meeting held on 28th April 2016, I am writing to inform you that you have not been promoted to Level 4 for season 2016-17.
As you will be aware, the criteria for promotion to Level 4 stated:
“County FAs will nominate to The FA the names of referees who meet the minimum criteria for promotion to the Supply League Referees List (Level 4).
In addition to information relating to on-field performance, the number of games officiated during the marking season, availability, fitness and administration will be amongst the other factors that may be taken into consideration when determining if a referee is promoted.
An FA Panel, chaired by a member of the FA Referees’ Committee, will consider all referees who are nominated and will decide, based on the information supplied and the national need for Supply League referees, which referees will be promoted to the Supply League Referees List.”
On receipt of the submissions from your County FA, I can inform you that you were ranked outside the numbers required and therefore missed out on promotion.
This decision does not preclude you from applying for promotion in future seasons.
