Clubs voted to abolish the two division format. In reality with only 12 clubs remaining they didn't have much choice.

Barnard Castle and Glaxo Rangers depart. Unsure if either have joined the Wearside League's lower division or if they have simply both folded.

the lineup is

Crook Wanderers (Promoted from defunct Division Two)
Evenwood Town
Ferryhill Town (Promoted from defunct Division Two)
Heighington (Promoted from defunct Division Two)
Howden Australian (rejoining after reforming)
Middlestone Moor
Newton Aycliffe Royal Telegraph (Promoted from defunct Division Two)
Stanhope Town Sports & Social
Stanley Town (Promoted from defunct Division Two)
Willington Working Mens Club
Wolsingham (Promoted from defunct Division Two)
Wynyard Stables (Promoted from defunct Division Two)

Congratulations to Fergie and the boys at Crook Town Wanderers for topping the league table!
