The Trident Leagues (Isthmian League, Northern Premier League and Southern
League) are supporting the National League’s 3UP Day of Action and will change all
fixtures on Saturday 15 November to kick-off at the later time of 3.03pm.

That means 104 games, 208 teams across 12 divisions who stand in solidarity with
the National League’s 3UP campaign – which already has the backing of its 72 clubs
and 93% of supporters across the football pyramid – is aiming to gain a third
promotion place into the EFL.

The move will see the Trident Leagues stand together with the National League in
asking the EFL to Put Football First and grant a third promotion place from Step 1
– something we feel would benefit the entire National League System.

A joint statement from the Trident League said: “We (Isthmian League, Northern
Premier League and Southern League) fully support the National League’s 3UP
campaign.
“We believe an additional promotion place to the EFL is essential for the future of
the National League Pyramid, so all league matches played on Saturday
15 November will kick-off at 3.03pm.”

Phil Alexander, National League interim CEO said: “We are pleased to have the
backing of the Trident Leagues for our 3UP campaign Day of Action on November
15.
“It’s a powerful gesture that demonstrates what we’ve said from the start that
getting 3UP will benefit English football as whole.
“It means we will now have 232 clubs and 232 sets of fans and communities in
every corner of the country, all together in solidarity fighting for what we feel is
right. Together we can Put Football First.”
