Yorkshire South Premier League
The Yorkshire South Premier League was formed in early 2016 as part of the restructuring of club cricket in Yorkshire, and is an ECB Premier League. Of the twelve initial teams competing, seven came from the now disbanded Yorkshire ECB County Premier League (Appleby Frodingham, Barnsley, Cleethorpes, Doncaster Town, Rotherham Town, Sheffield and Phoenix United, and Sheffield Collegiate), four from the South Yorkshire Premier League (Aston Hall, Treeton, Whitley Hall and Wickersley Old Village) and on from the Central Yorkshire League (Wakefield Thornes).
A process of promotion and relegation is in operation with the bottom two teams being replaced each season by the top two teams from the South Yorkshire Championship, as the South Yorkshire Premier League is now known.
The league winners qualify to take part in the Yorkshire Championship, together with the winners of the Bradford Premier League and the Yorkshire Premier League North, and the leading Yorkshire club in the North Yorkshire and South Durham Cricket League. Wakefield Thornes won the Yorkshire Championship in 2016 and 2018.
The competing teams for 2019 are Aston Hall, Barnsley Woolley Miners, Cleethorpes, Doncaster Town, Elsecar, Hallam, Sheffield Collegiate, Tickhill, Treeton, Wakefield Thornes, Whitley Hall and Wickersley Old Village.
