Yorkshire 5 was an English Rugby Union league at the eleventh tier of the domestic competition and was the basement league of club rugby in Yorkshire. This league was not always the bottom division as for a while there was a Yorkshire 6 but this league merged with Yorkshire 5. Also, for a short period, Yorkshire 5 was split into two parallel leagues based on geographical location. Promoted teams moved up to Yorkshire 4.

At the end of the 2016-17 season Yorkshire 5 was abolished due to RFU changes to the Yorkshire league structure. This restructuring would see Yorkshire 4 broken up into two regional leagues - Yorkshire 4 (North West) and Yorkshire 4 (South East) - with teams from both Yorkshire 4 and 5 transferred into these new leagues.[1]

Yorkshire 5 Honours

Yorkshire 5 (1987–1993)

The original Yorkshire 5 was a tier 13 league with promotion up to Yorkshire 4 and relegation down to Yorkshire 6 until that division was cancelled at the end of the 1991–92 season.

Green backgrounds are promotion places.

Yorkshire 5 (1993–2000)

The creation of National 5 North for the 1993–94 season meant that Yorkshire 5 dropped to become a tier 14 league. A further restructure at the end of the 1995–96 season, which included the cancellation of National 5 North and the addition of North East 3 at tier 9, saw Yorkshire 5 remain at tier 14. During this period Yorkshire 6 (and relegation) was re-introduced in 1996-97, cancelled, and then re-introduced for the third time for the 1999–00 season.

Yorkshire 5 (2000–2004)

Northern league restructuring by the RFU at the end of the 1999-2000 season saw the cancellation of North East 1, North East 2 and North East 3 (tiers 7-9). This meant that Yorkshire 5 became a tier 11 league. Relegation continued to Yorkshire 6 until that division was abolished ahead of the 2003–04 season.

Promotion play-offs

Between 2005 and 2007 there was a play-off between the runners-up of Yorkshire 5 North-West and Yorkshire 5 South-West for the third and final promotion place to Yorkshire 4. The team with the superior league record has home advantage in the tie. At the end of the 2016–17 season Yorkshire 5 North-West have been the most successful winning all three games; and the away team has won promotion on two occasions compared to the home teams one.

For the 2007-08 season Yorkshire 5 was re-organized into non-geographical groups named Yorkshire 5A and Yorkshire 5B, with Yorkshire 5B being the most successful by winning the only playoff game played. After the 2008-09 season Yorkshire 5 returned to a single division meaning that there have been no more play-offs since.

Notes

  1. ^ Relegated side Knaresborough would transfer to Durham/Northumberland 4 for the following season instead of dropping to Yorkshire 6.
  2. ^ League restructuring due to the cancellation of Yorkshire 6 ahead of the 1992–93 season, meant eight clubs were promoted into Yorkshire 4 including Hornsea, De La Salle (Sheffield), Withernsea, Phoenix Park, BP Chemicals and Yorkshire Main. Hull & East Riding were also meant to be promoted but they merged with Old Hymerians to form Hull RUFC who would play in North 2 East.[2]
  3. ^ League restructuring due to the cancellation of Yorkshire 6 ahead of the 1992–93 season, meant no clubs were relegated.
  4. ^ Runners up Eddington & Wick were supposed to be promoted to Yorkshire 4 but would instead drop out of the league system at the end of the season.
  5. ^ The reintroduction of Yorkshire 6 would see multiple teams relegated to populate the new division.
  6. ^ No promotion as division to increase from 5 to 10 teams for the following season.
  7. ^ No relegation as Yorkshire 6 to be cancelled at the end of the season - it would re-emerge briefly in 2009-10 for one season only.
  8. ^ Four clubs promoted including Ossett and Harrogate Pythons due to league restructure - Yorkshire 6 to be reinstated and Yorkshire 5 to merge back into a single division.
  9. ^ 3rd place Adwick Le Street also promoted due to league restructure - Yorkshire 6 to be reinstated and Yorkshire 5 to merge back into a single division.
  10. ^ Leeds Metropolitan University would drop out of the league for the following season.
