For any proposal to be consider it has to be backed by another member club (at least two clubs have to support for the motion to be discussed, if only the proposer who puts forward the matter supports the motion it will not be discussed and therefore will be dismissed. If the matter receives support for two or more member clubs the motion will be discussed and 75% must vote in favour for it to be passed as part of the league constitution for season 2023.

Proposed Matter/RuleProposed by Passed
We request that we do NOT change the current league structure for season 2023 as agreed at the previous AGM, which is unique and promotes fair competition across the league. We believe that moving to the new structure will not only put people off from buying into league but also push them away from enjoyable cricket.Central Leeds CC
