The pyramid
Find your club
Filter by step, by region, or by typing a name. The list is the real thing here: the map beside it is a schematic drawn by hand, and everything it shows the list shows too. Hide the map and you lose nothing.
This is a sample, not the full system. The FA allocated 996 clubs to Steps 1 to 6 for 2026-27. We have seeded 51 of them, spread across all ten regions, so the feature works and the pattern is clear. The rest is work we have not finished yet, not a part of the argument we are hiding.
Every club's step is marked for verification: clubs are promoted and relegated every summer, so a step recorded here is only correct for the season named and must be checked against The FA's allocations before publication.

Where they are
Schematic. Points are placed from each town's real latitude and longitude, computed once when the site is built — there is no map provider, no tiles and no lookup at runtime. The coastline is drawn by hand and is not survey data. Region names sit at the average position of that region's clubs rather than on boundaries we do not have.
Is your club on this list?
If it is not, or if its step is wrong, tell us and we will fix it. Every figure on this site names the source it came from.
