Wikipedia - National League (division)
The National League officially known as Vanarama National League for sponsorship reasons, is the highest level of the National League System and fifth-highest of the overall English football league system. Through the National League, clubs get promoted to the EFL League Two, one of the divisions of the English Football League.
Notable former English Football League clubs that compete in the National League include: Oldham Athletic, Rochdale, York City, Yeovil Town, Hartlepool United and Southend United. The longest tenured team currently competing in the National League is Aldershot Town, who have been competing in the National League since 2013–14. The National League is the lowest division in the English football pyramid organised on a nationwide basis. Formerly the Conference National, the league was renamed the National League from the 2015–16 season.
History
The league was formed as the Alliance Premier League in 1979, coming into force for the 1979–80 season. The league drew its clubs from the Northern Premier League and the Southern League.
It greatly improved the quality of football at this lower level, as well as improving the financial status of the top clubs. This was reflected in 1986–87, when the Football League began accepting direct promotion and relegation between the Conference and the bottom division of the Football League, which at that time was known as the Football League Fourth Division and is now EFL League Two. The first team to be promoted by this method was Scarborough, and the first team relegated was Lincoln City, who regained their Football League status a year later as Conference champions.
Since 2002–03, the league has been granted a second promotion place, with a play-off deciding who joins the champions in League Two. Previously, no promotion from the Conference would occur if the winners did not have adequate stadium facilities. If a club wins the division, but does not qualify for promotion, the next highest eligible club will be promoted in its place. If a club finishes in the play-off places but does not have an adequate stadium they will unable to take part in the play-off competition. In that event such club shall not be replaced and the play-off structure and draw shall be adjusted as necessary by the National League Board on the basis of the remaining clubs’ final league positions.
In 2004–05, the Conference increased its size by adding two lower divisions, the Conference North and Conference South respectively, with the original division being renamed Conference National. For the 2006–07 season, the Conference National expanded from 22 to 24 teams by promoting four teams while relegating two teams and introduced a "four up and four down" system between itself and the Conference North and Conference South.
The tournament features a total of 24 teams, each vying for the coveted title of England National League champions. These teams are divided into three divisions, namely the National League, National League North, and National League South, based on their geographical location.
The England National League is known for its intense and thrilling matches, with teams battling it out on the field to secure victory. The tournament provides a platform for both established and up-and-coming players to showcase their skills and attract the attention of top-tier clubs.
The league follows a traditional round-robin format, where each team plays against every other team in their division twice, once at home and once away. The top teams from each division earn promotion to the higher tier, while the bottom-placed teams face relegation to the lower division.
The England National League has a rich history, dating back to its establishment in 1979. Over the years, it has produced some of the country's finest footballers and witnessed memorable moments that have become part of soccer folklore.
The tournament attracts a passionate fan base, with supporters filling stadiums across the country to cheer on their favorite teams. The atmosphere is electric, with chants, songs, and colorful displays creating an unforgettable experience for both players and spectators.
The England National League also serves as a pathway for teams to progress to higher divisions, such as the English Football League (EFL) and potentially even the prestigious English Premier League. This adds an extra layer of excitement and motivation for teams competing in the tournament.
Overall, the England National League is a showcase of the best soccer talent in Great Britain, providing thrilling matches, intense rivalries, and a platform for players and teams to make their mark in the world of football.
