2012–13 Kent Football League

The 2012–13 Kent Football League season (known as the 2012–13 Hurlimann Kent Football League for sponsorship reasons) was the 47th in the history of Kent Football League, a football competition in England.

At the end of the season the league changed its name to the Southern Counties East Football League, to reflect that many of its member clubs no longer played within the county boundaries of Kent.[1]

The League structure comprised two divisions: a Premier Division and Division One – the latter was known as the Reserves Section, comprising reserves teams which were not permitted in the Premier Division. Additionally there were two league cup competitions, the Challenge Cup for the Premier Division clubs and another for the teams in the Reserves Section.

From the Kent Premier League Erith & Belvedere (who were promoted as champions), Erith Town, Tunbridge Wells, VCD Athletic and Whyteleafe applied for promotion.[4][5] Subsequently, VCD Athletic were promoted as one of the two runners-up with the best PPG.
