North Berks League |
|
The North Berks Football League is a feeder to the Hellenic League, but not (as of 2016-17) a member of the National League system.
Founded in 1908, it has four divisions (Divisions One to Four). Despite its name, the vast majority of clubs are based in South Oxfordshire. However, many of those Oxfordshire clubs were once in Berkshire before county lines were redrawn in 1974.
Current members with previous Hellenic League experience include Faringdon, East Hendred and Lambourn Sports. In recent years, both Shrivenham and Kintbury Rangers have moved up from the North Berks to the Hellenic.
The league has an excellent website, which includes a history section with all previous league tables, at http://www.nbfl.co.uk
