I know a bit about the dutch league, they have one orginisation called the KNVB who deal with everything, basically if the SFA actually ran all football. Each team has a youth system where they bring the kids in from about 7 and put them through school and learning to work with the ball and develop skills, then they progress into the teams.
They have the champions then 2nd place team go for champs league. then they have playoff's for the final euro places. They took the idea from the German league about reducing prices and stuff. They do the same as Germany and the leagues getting better for it
