National Division One
Appearance
National League One is the second tier of the English Rugby Union leagues. Since the advent of leagues it has been known by several names. From 1987/88 until 1996/97 it was known as Division 2 of the Courage League or Courage Clubs Championship. From 1997/98 until 1999/2000 it was known as the Allied Dunbar Premier League Two or Allied Dunbar Premiership Division Two. When Zurich took over the sponsorship of the Premiership in 2000/01, they did not sponsor the lower leagues, and so the league became National League One.
