Welcome to the Kent Metropolitan League website.
The KentMet League was set up initially for the 1997/1998 season. It was the
natural development, following the success the previous season of the East
Kent Leagues that was created by John Carley.
There are five league tables drawn from the junior sides of the rugby clubs
in the North West area of Kent, and the South East
quadrant of London. Some 26 clubs are
involved in providing 55 teams, that are evenly spread over the five leagues.
In recognition of the main County sponsors for Kent RFU, Shepherd Neame
Limited, three of our five leagues have been named after one of the brewer's
ales, and so we have the following leagues, Premier, Bishops Finger,
Conference, Master Brew, and Late Red.
The main aim is to encourage the playing of meaningful rugby at the senior
level, by providing, as full as possible, a fixture list for the season at
the appropriate level, and with the minimum of traveling. Automatic promotion
and relegation does not occur, but at the end of the each season, amendments
are made depending upon a team’s performance. Ultimately, we are trying to
provide 30 plus players the chance to enjoy themselves each Saturday, and
indirectly, by having a full workable Fixture List for the season, helping
the clubs financially.

I should just like to remind you of
our AGM, which will be held on Thursday the 12th June at 7.30, in the
Beckenham RFC club house. There will be a buffet served for those
attending.
As there appeared to be some teams that were experiencing some difficult games
last season, the Committee decided to make a few changes in our league set
up. It was also felt that possibly after 10 years, that some of you might
like to have a change of opposition. After several draft copies we think we
now have a viable system that should suit the needs of everyone. If you
click on to the "Latest Results" button you can see the changes
that have been made. We have lost Westcombe Park III to the Invicta League
and Shooters Hill has dropped a team. We have two new teams joining, and I
should like to welcome Southwark Lancers, and Charlton Park V's.
I'm sorry that I'm unable at this time to issue the Fixture Lists, but I'm
still waiting for the Fixtures for Kent 1 & 2 to be published. When I
have them then you will receive your lists. I can say though that we start
on the 27th September and finish on the Saturday before Easter, also that
we now have 5 Leagues of 11, 12, 11, 11, and 10. Cheers Clive
