What’s next for the UKLC?
Before the next UKLC split, the separate knockout-based tournament Forge of Champions Spring 2019 will run.
After this, a promotion tournament will take place. Teams must win two games to progress, or if they lose two they will be knocked out. The two teams that progress will face the bottom two UKLC teams from the previous split in best-of-three matches.
The final two that progress through the promotion tournament will qualify for the UKLC summer split. There’s more info in the Forge of Champions link included above.
