First I'd like to ask why you would want to rush promotion? There is something to be said to take it slow and take in as much as you can learn as you can at each level. This may be a case of running before walking.
Thanks. It was only an enquiry to see if it was possible that was all, nothing wrong with being ambitious I have years of experience as a higher league player and was hoping that the knowledge I have of the game reflects well in my refereeing and from the feedback I've received, it does. I'm a firm believer if your good enough then why not. I'm not fussed if it takes me a few seeasons, just wandered if it was possible. And it would appear not
You can apply after one full season. There is nothing wrong with going for it if you think you are ready. There are a lot of people who will like to tell you you are moving too quickly. Typically, these will be people that couldn't get through that quickly when they tried to. You have to learn to filter advice as everyone thinks they're an expert. Filter this if you want!

I applied after my first season but there was a problem with mine I wasn't getting any middles even with asking. I rushed into it big mistake and I'm now contemplating it for next promotion season but I might (hopefully) going to Uni so I'm unsure at the minute.
Is it possible to have promotion if halfway through the year I will switch to another county fa?
