According to @nonleaguemaps, this could be next seasons NPL Premier Division teams
The assumption is that Macclesfield and Worksop will be promoted and Blyth, Mickleover, Basford and Matlock will be relegated. (Basford & Mickleover into NPL Midands, Blyth & Matlock into NPL East)
Ashton United
Bamber Bridge
FC United
Gainsborough Trinity
Guiseley
Hebburn Town
Hyde united
Ilkeston Town
Lancaster City
Leek Town
Morpeth Town
Prescot Cables
Stockton Town
Warrington Rylands
Whitby Town
Workington
relegated from Step 2
Farsley Celtic
Warrington Town
promoted from Step 4
Cleethorpes Town look like being NPL East Champions
Emley have to come through NPL East playoffs (could be pipped by several teams)
Vauxhall Motors have to come through NPL West playoffs (could be pipped by Hednesford, Congleton or Chasetown)
Widnes look like being NPL West Champions

Re: @NonLeague Maps projection of NPL Premier Division teams next season
The above listing is based on promotion and relegation assumptions which could change in the coming weeks .
Also assumptions like who will make or win the playoffs are not possible to predict with certainty.
But it's interesting that if the above assumed promotions and relegations turn out to be correct then there would be no need for lateral movements of teams between leagues ie NPL and Southern League.

==================================
If that were to happen, would another team from Step 4 be promoted to make the number the teams up to 22?
(if so it would probably be the team with the best points record who missed out on promotion ......And if that team happened to be a Southern team , then there would have to be a lateral movement of the most northerly team in the three Step 3 Southern leagues into the Northern Premier League, maybe Spalding, Telford. Barwell or Long Eaton (if promoted)
