After much and thorough consideration, Athearan League 1 Director Jose Anderwitdz finally decided to open up the Athearan League 1 to the multi-verse. The League 1 had been running since 1960, starting out with only 10 clubs, then slowly growing into 18 and 3 leagues, with 18 teams each. The League had originally opposed the idea of Atheara playing to other universes, but with how well Atheara has been received by the international community, the Direct Board had to open up.
Before the plan of opening the League 1, the final matchday had ended for the season, with AFC Fallstead somehow clinching the title after a 3-3 draw with the top club in Atheara, the Astena Rangers. Ending a 4 year dominance, where the Rangers won the League 4 times. Athearan clubs generally are usually defensive, with offensive based teams rarely getting far in the League. The big 6 of Atheara are the Astena Rangers, Bayerstrome SC, Real Kazatia, Harindar SC, Neidegrad United, and Neidegrad City.
At the end of the season, 4 clubs were relegated, and 4 clubs were promoted. To further the concept, the 4 teams at the bottom of the League has a chance to stay in the League, if they beat the lower League side. Champion of League 2 fight 18th spot. 2nd of L2 fight 17th of L1, and so forth. The relegated ones were Lesser Fordia FC, Gruttenwald United, SC Estria, and Parkenheight FC. The 4 promoted clubs were Real Nova, FC Fikares, AFC Rekozia, and Sisalena United. The League 2 Director, Parker Winderhosen, had no choice but to agree.
