Not sure we should be including all of the lower Divisions in such an article, as may not meet notability guidelines WP:NOTSTATSBOOK. Leagues down to and including the Sunday Premier League have some local press, and are generally included in competitions such as the Football West State Cup, whereas the Leagues below this do not. I do not think we should have all these tables for non-notable lower leagues, just because we now have the software on-line to access the results and ladders.

If a league has to have the league it relaegates to, then you might just keep going and going and going (i.e. there's 6 more Metropolitan divisions below the lowest one in this article. Some Sunday teams are from outside of Perth, but the distances are too great for most. There are a bunch of separate regional associations that do their own thing independently of the Perth-based competitions; the only thing now linking them is the new format of the FFA Cup preliminary rounds for the State Cup. La Fiamma has ~400km travel to Perth, thats about the biggest commute.. Also whilst there are mechanisms for promotion/relegation to & from the Sunday Premier League, it doesnt seem to happen often in practice - teams can be happy staying in Sunday comp, they may not have venue access if they swapped to the Saturday competition etc., their grounds might not be up-to-speed with Football West requirements for te higher divisions, etc.
