AFLSE Announcement re Season 2021

17 September 2021

AFLSE wishes to advise on some key decisions regarding the awarding of premierships for season 2021 for all AFLSE leagues and competitions.

PREMIERSHIPS AND MINOR PREMIERS

Due to the cancellation of all 2021 finals series within the AFLSE South East administered leagues, it has been determined that no premierships will be awarded for the MPNFL, SEWF, SEJ, FDJFL and Top Age Competition this season. In determining this position, the completion of a finals series was considered critical to recognise and award a Premiership.

However, AFLSE determined it was necessary to recognise the teams that finished first on the ladder across all competitions. Therefore, the team that finished first on the ladder after, or at the cancellation of, the home and away season will be acknowledged as the Minor Premiers for season 2021.

No premiership flags or medallions will be presented.

While the season did not end as hoped, congratulations to each team recognised as the Minor Premiers for the 2021 season in their respective Grades:

DIVISION ONE
• A GRADE – Rosebud FNC
• B GRADE – Frankston YCW FNC
• C GRADE – Edithvale-Aspendale FNC
• D GRADE – Edithvale-Aspendale FNC
• 17 & UNDER – Edithvale-Aspendale FNC

DIVISION TWO
• A GRADE – Langwarrin FNC
• B GRADE – Tyabb FNC
• C GRADE – Chelsea FNC
• D GRADE – Chelsea FNC
• 17 & UNDER – Pearcedale FNC

PROMOTION AND RELEGATION (relevant to MPNFL only)
It was determined that automatic promotion and relegation will not be applied this year due to the shortened home and away season and cancellation of the finals series. The application of promotion and relegation has been to promote the Division 2 team that wins the grand final, not the team which finishes first after the home and away season. As a finals series was not able to be completed, it was determined that automatic promotion should not be applied.
