Could an amateur district league be away forward to spread the game? Regions with population of around 200k . Start with the heartlands and slowly spread north and south. You have five regions in West Yorkshire, 2 in east Yorkshire . 1 in North Yorkshire and 4 in South Yorkshire. Greater Manchester has 10 regions. Cheshire has 4 , while Merseyside has 5 . Surly that would be a good foundation to start with.
