The League is made up of two or more divisions of approximately eight teams per
division. At the end of each year’s League, teams are promoted and relegated between successive divisions.

Assuming two divisions of approximately eight teams, two teams are promoted from
the Second Division to the First Division, and two teams are relegated from the First
Division to the Second Division.

The winners of the First Division earn selection to represent England in one weekend of the 2015 Camrose Trophy series, and in The European Champions’ Cup 2015.
