Divisional structure (2024 Season)
[edit]The Warwickshire Cricket league is split into a number of divisions. At the end of 2018 due to changes to the Recreational game from ECB a number of Birmingham League sides were moved down to the Warwickshire League and largely formed the Premier Division with the top 4 of the 2018 Warwickshire premier division teams.
A number of big clubs have added a 4th, 5th or even 6th xi to the league. Barby have left the league to join the Northamptonshire Cricket League, Hunningham have also left to join the Coltswolds Hills League.
