RPL players don’t move up automatically. Places are earned on merit: standout players are picked for SPSA’s junior representative teams in external tournaments, and players who keep progressing can go on to the ECB Academy League. RPL players are already playing for SPSA in the ECB U12 leagues this season. Read more about the pathway →
