It's down to ground criteria. If a club doesn't match it, then it can't get
promoted.

That's just for the Welsh Premier. After that, there's a whole new set of rules
for hosting European games.

Forgive my ignorance, but why do clubs have to apply to be promoted?

I'm from Scotland and I am a junior footballer, junior being a semi
professional, non league type level.

On our Yahoo list we are constantly talking about reconstruction involving
senior, non-league senior and junior levels, even amateur, into a pyramid
system. At the moment there is no promotion from the junior game into the
senior game if you win any of the top 3 junior regional super leagues.

You can argue that clubs like Pollok and Arthurlie might not want to go
senior due to the big fish in small pond to small fish in big pond
mentality, which I understand and even agree with to an extent. Superleague
Premier (junior) or Div. 3 stragglers (senior), which is better?

Is your promotion optional?
