From 2018 to 2022, the league consisted of three divisions at Tiers 6 to 8. The 2018 league was essentially a continuation of a two division system which operated from 2003. It was split into two geographical sections at Tier 7 from 2011, with the lower (Tier 8) Division Two disbanded two years later. After five seasons of that setup, a three-division model was restored.
Beginning from the 2013–14 season, the two automatically relegated clubs drop into one of two regional divisions below the North Superleague.[1] In 2016–17 and 2017–18, a play-off was introduced between the third bottom Superleague side and the runners-up in the East and West sections of the North First Division, potentially adding a third relegation place. Subsequently, there has been automatic relegation only in a deregionalised league system.
Membership of the North Region Premier Division is dependent on more stringent ground criteria than the general entry requirements to the North Region and in recent years, both Inverness City (twice), and Grantown were refused promotion to the North Superleague on this basis.[2][3]
