League reveals line-up for new term

Sidley United, blue strip, will take their place in ADA East Sussex Football League Division One during the coming season

Sidley will share use of Hooe Recreation Ground with the returning Hooe Sports, who will play in Division Three. Battle Baptists and Sedlescombe Rangers have been promoted into a 10-team Premier Division, with Ticehurst dropping down to Division One.

Another new club is AFC St Leonards, while Icklesham Casuals and Punnetts Town have added second teams. Orington have gone down from two sides to one and Crowborough Athletic III have withdrawn.
