Combined Counties Football League
Season2022–23

The 2022–23 Combined Counties Football League season (known as the 2022–23 Cherry Red Records Combined Counties Football League for sponsorship reasons) was the 45th in the history of the Combined Counties Football League, a football competition in England. Teams were divided into three divisions; the Premier North, the Premier South and the First.

The constitution was announced on 12 May 2022.[1]

Premier Division North

[edit]

Premier Division North consisted of 20 clubs, increased from 18 last season, after Hanworth Villa and Southall were promoted to the Isthmian League South Central Division; Abbey Rangers and Tadley Calleva were transferred to Premier Division South; St Panteleimon were transferred to the Spartan South Midlands League Premier Division, and CB Hounslow United were relegated to Division One. Eight new clubs joined the division:

  • Staines Town were initially relegated from the Isthmian League South Central Division, but suspended operations,[4] withdrew from the league, and in July 2022 were replaced by Hilltop.[5]

Premier Division South

[edit]

Premier Division South remained at 20 clubs after Beckenham Town were promoted to the Isthmian League South East Division, Walton & Hersham were promoted to the Isthmian League South Central Division, and Molesey were relegated to Division One. Three new clubs joined the division:

  • The club finishing the season in second position was initially required to play in an inter-step playoff with a team from step 4. Due to ground grading failures higher up the pyramid, three step 4 clubs were reprieved, and the three step 5 runners-up with the highest PPG (points per game) were automatically promoted. Badshot Lea were one of those three.
