Northern Premier League
Link to the Official Website for up to date results and league tables for the Northern Premier League.
The Northern Premier League was formed in the 1968/69 season as the northern equivalent of the Southern League. Teams could be promoted to the Football League making this league the equivalent of step 1 of the Non League Pyramid). This changed with the formation of the Alliance Premier League (what is now the National League) in 1979/80. The Northern Premier League now sits at step 3 of the Non League Pyramid.
Leicestershire sits at the southern most tip of the Northern Premier League catchment area (though this has drifted further south over the seasons).
Leicestershire teams have taken part in this league for a number of seasons, first appearing in 1988/89 then appearing in every season from 2004/05 onwards.
