HAMPSHIRE League will run with 15 clubs next season after a mass exodus to join the Sydenhams Wessex League ranks.

Only six teams from last season's Hampshire League will compete in the new county set-up and two of those are the reserve teams of Netley Central Sports and Stockbridge.

Broughton, M & T Awbridge, East Lodge and Durley make up the county contingent, but there are strong new entries from the Southampton League champions Sporting BTC and the New Hants League top-dogs Upham.

Full entry: Durley, Broughton, M&T Awbridge, East Lodge, Netley Central Sports Reserves, Stockbridge Reserves, Winchester City Reserves, Sporting BTC, BTC Southampton, Lyndhurst STJ, Fair Oak, Upham, Vernham Dean, LL Basingstoke and Hedge End Rangers.

The Hampshire League (2004) meet at the Royal British Legion Club in Bitterne on Monday (7.30) to appoint a new management committee.
