The FA manages the promotion application process for Clubs operating in Regional NLS Feeder Leagues who are seeking promotion to Step 6 of the NLS.
The necessary forms and guidance notes are drafted on an annual basis and are ordinarily circulated to Feeder Leagues at the end of October/start of November for onward distribution to their member Clubs.
A Club must then complete the required paperwork to its fullest before submitting this to through the online form by no later than 31 December in any season. In addition to the digitally submitted application forms, a payment is also necessary and guidance in relation to this will be provided at an appropriate time.
Note: applications received after 31 December will not be considered.
