The league structure is going to be transformed at the end of this season.
The reason for the transformation is that with large number of managers in
the country, there are too many league levels which cause that you have only
a little chance to fight your way to higher leagues. Second reason is the
another upcoming change - distribution of teams to managers only from the
lowest leagues - if we kept the present structure a lot of teams would stay
unoccupied.
Number of leagues on each level in the new structure:
1-st league - 1
2-nd league - 2
3-rd league - 8
4-th league - 16
5-th league - 32
6-th league - 64
7-th league - 128
At the end of this season a new league for the team will be chosen in the
new structure according to its final position in regular season and
play-off. The exact promotion key doesn't exist - the promotion will depend
on the position of teams in all leagues of the same level.
