Schedule and New BUCS Division Format Released
The Leeds Celtics, after finishing last season with a 1-6 record in the First Division, are now facing a new set of opponents this year as BUCS has altered the structure of divisions in an attempt to create a more competitive brand of football. The Celtics now find themselves playing familiar teams such as Bradford and York, however in the 2A Northern-Midlands Division they are now facing Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan as well.
Included in the new division layout is a new playoff structure which will require the Celtics to first of all win their 2A Northern-Midlands division and then defeat the winner of the 2A Midlands division as well to secure promotion into the 1A Northern division.
The Celtics 2015/16 Schedule will be as follows: Sunday, 31st October 2015: Away @ York Sunday, 9 November 2015: Home vs. Manchester Metropolitan Sunday, 22 November 2015: Away @ Manchester Sunday 06 December 2015: Home vs. Bradford --- Christmas Break --- Sunday, 31 January 2016: Home vs. York Sunday, 07 February 2016: Away @ Bradford Sunday, 14 February 2016: Home vs. Manchester Sunday, 21 February 2016: Away @ Manchester Metropolitan
