Clipstone and Pontefract Collieries are promoted from Division One and, with Heanor Town moving laterally to the Midland League, Retford United are reprieved despite finishing in a relegation spot.

Glasshoughton Welfare are the only side then to drop into Division One whilst Hull United and Westella VIP come into the league from the Humber Premier League and Central Midlands League, respectively.
