Cornwall League 1 honours

Cornwall League 1 (1987–1993)

The original Cornwall 1 (sponsored by Courage) was a tier 9 league with promotion to Cornwall/Devon and relegation to Cornwall 2.

Cornwall League 1 (1993–96)

The creation of National 5 South for the 1993–94 season meant that the Cornwall League 1 dropped to become a tier 10 league. Promotion was to Cornwall/Devon and relegation to Cornwall 2. The league continued to be sponsored by Courage.

Cornwall League 1 (1996–2009)

The cancellation of National 5 South at the end of the 1995–96 season saw Cornwall League 1 return to being a tier 9 division. Promotion continued to Cornwall/Devon and relegation to Cornwall 2. From the 2008–09 season onward the league was sponsored by Tribute.

Cornwall League (2009–2011)

For the 2009–10 season Cornwall 1 and Cornwall 2 were combined into a single division at tier 9 of the league system. Promotion was to Cornwall/Devon and there was no relegation.

Cornwall League 1 (2011–2016)

The splitting of the Cornwall League back into two separate divisions, saw Cornwall 1 remain at tier 9 of the league system. Promotion continued to Cornwall/Devon and relegation was once again to Cornwall 2.

Cornwall League 1 (2016–2018)

The 2016–17 season saw the Cornwall leagues restructured. For the first half of the season, all the clubs from Cornwall 1 and Cornwall 2 play in a single tier 9 division. In the second half of the season league the teams divided into Cornwall 1 and Cornwall 2 leagues based on their league positions. Promotion continued to Cornwall/Devon and there was no relegation.

Cornwall League 1 (2018–2022)

The 2018–19 season saw Cornwall 1 revert to being a tier 9 league with promotion to Cornwall/Devon and relegation to Cornwall 2.

Counties 2 Cornwall (2022– )

From 2022–23 season Cornwall 1 has been renamed Counties 2 Cornwall and is a tier 8 league with twelve teams participating. Promotion is to Counties 1 Western West and relegation to Counties 3 Cornwall.

Promotion play-offs

Since the 2000–01 season there has been a play-off between the runners-up of Cornwall League 1 and Devon League 1 for the third and final promotion place to Cornwall/Devon. The team with the superior league record has home advantage in the tie. At the end of the 2019–20 season the Devon League 1 teams have been the most successful with thirteen wins to the Cornwall League 1 teams five; and the home team has won promotion on twelve occasions compared to the away teams six.

Notes

1. Veor moved to the Memorial Ground at the start of the 2016–17 season having been given notice to leave original ground Wheal Berry.
2. Illogan Park withdrew from the league at the start of the season due to having only fourteen players in their squad.
3. 3rd place Liskeard-Looe also promoted.
4. Lankelly-Fowey withdrew during the league season.
5. The splitting of the Cornwall League back into Cornwall 1 and Cornwall 2 at the end of the season meant that five clubs were relegated. They were St Day, Perranporth, Illogan Park, St Agnes and Redruth Albany.
6. There was no relegation as Cornwall 1 and Cornwall 2 were combined to form a single division in the first half of the following season.
7. The result of the 2003–04 promotion play-off between Old Plymothian & Mannamedian and Perranporth is not listed on the RFU website, although Old Plymothian & Mannamedian would have had home advantage as they had a better league record than Perranporth. We do, however, know that Old Plymothian & Mannamedian won this game as they were in Cornwall/Devon the next season while Perranporth were not.
8. Due to the restructuring of the English league system by the RFU for the 2009–10 season there would be no 2008-09 promotion playoff between the league runners up in Cornwall 1 and Devon 1 with the champions and runners up from each league going up automatically.
9. Topsham were automatically promoted at the end of the 2015–16 season as Camborne School of Mines did not want to be promoted.
10. Torrington were automatically promoted at the end of the 2016–17 season as Newquay Hornets did not want to be promoted.

Sponsorship

The Cornwall One League was part of the Courage Clubs Championship and sponsored by Courage Brewery from the first season, 1987–88 to season 1996–97. The league was unsponsored until season 2007–08 when St Austell Brewery sponsored South-west based leagues under the Tribute Ale label.
