Hard to say. In our division, most games were, but the teams don’t play every one else. So while the teams are listed in one flight, they appear to be scheduled in way to maintain competitiveness.

The CBSC teams played each other, apparently 2x, but some those were not competitive, depending on who played who.

Honestly, the game schedule was the only drawback I saw going from SSC to CBSC. In every other meaningful way, CBSC has been an improvement. The CPL thing has been annoying, but it won’t stop CBSC from continuing into next year.

Now, if CBSC applies and is denied entry next year into CPL, then all bets are off. If they do enter, I do not see a drawback to being in CBSC with the possible exception of cost (which is totally fair depending on one’s circumstances).
