Middlesex County Football League
The Middlesex County Football League is a football competition based in England loosely drawing teams from the central, northern and western parts of Greater London. The league was founded in 1984 and initially had only one division, although it has since expanded greatly. It currently has a total of seven divisions. The Premier Division sits at step 7 (or level 11) of the National League System. It is a feeder to the Combined Counties Football League and the Hellenic Football League. The league is currently sponsored by Cherry Red Books.
History
The Middlesex County League was founded in 1984 as a single division. One year later, the league expanded to include a second division (Division One). In 1991 the league added a third tier, Division Two, which was discontinued during 1996–2002. On its reinstatement a fourth tier was also created (Division Three). For the 2006–07 season the league added a fifth level and the fourth level was regionalised. The divisions were named Division Three East and Division Three West. A further re-organisation in 2007–08 saw growth and the league expanded to six divisions: Division One acquired its split (into East and West), Division Three East was renamed Division Three, whilst Division Three West was renamed Division Three (Hounslow & District). By the end of the 2010–11 season, both Division Threes had been dropped, and the league spent two seasons with four divisions across three levels. In 2013, a fourth-tier Combination Division was reintroduced below Division Two, and in 2017, a fifth tier, the Jeff Nardin Division, was added. In 2019, Division One was expanded to three divisions and Division Three was reintroduced between Division Two and the Combination, creating eight divisions in all. Division Three was dropped again for 2022–23, restoring the league to seven divisions across five levels. Former members to progress through the pyramid are: Brook House, Hanworth Villa, CB Hounslow United, Rayners Lane, North Greenford United, Sutton Common Rovers, South Kilburn, Neasden Foundation, Bethnal Green United, Bedfont Sports, Hayes Gate, Southall, FC Romania, British Airways, Broadfields United, West Essex, FC Deportivo Galicia, St. Panteleimon, Hilltop and NW London. In 2021, a mini tournament, the Middlesex Super 6, was organised following the abandonment of the season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which featured Clapton Community, Cricklewood Wanderers, NW London, Stonewall, Sporting Hackney and AEK London, who won the tournament.
