Parish League System

The Parish League System is the third and last tier of professional football in Brunant. Unlike the 1st and 2nd Liga, this is played entirely in regional leagues and is not nationwide. There are four leagues at this level across Brunant.

League overview
Each of the Leagues in the 3rd division consist of eight teams. Many of them are small independent clubs, but a few of them serve as reserve teams to larger 2 and 1. Liga clubs.

Promotion and relegation
In the Parish League system, the top clubs are not immediately promoted to the 2. Liga. The top eight teams (2 per league) then play a mini-tournament, leaving four teams competing for two promotion spots. The two finalists gain their promotion and are not required to play each other.

Teams are not normally relegated but there are a few instance, such as:
 * 1) A club within a league is in financial difficulty and ends up in administration
 * 2) A reserve team's parent is also relegated if their parent club is relegated to their respective parish league.

A club can thus avoid relegation for 1. if they are able to find a new owner willing to inject cash, but this is hard for such small teams. reserve teams can avoid demotion (for no. 2) if they are legally separated from their parent club, meaning they would compete on the same level.

Cape Cross Parish League
The Cape Cross league consists of 8 clubs from Cape Cross and Carrington Parish. The oldest club in this league, Manchester Cape Cross F.C. is also the oldest existing club in Brunant (followed by FC Pieter II)
