Another positive note is the proposal of a new series of under-nines friendly tournaments as Cayton, Cloughton, Flixton, Pickering, Scarborough, Sewerby, Snainton and Wykeham have all expressed an interest in taking part.

The under-15s league will become the under-16s Premier League, with the 10 teams playing each other once, with the extra fixtures being formulated after July 3 based upon where the teams are positioned.
