Yorkshire 1 is an English Rugby Union league at the seventh tier of the domestic competition, the top level for local rugby union in Yorkshire. The champions are automatically promoted to North 1 East, a division with a wider geographical area which also encompasses north east England. The runner-up participates in a playoff against the 2nd place team from the equivalent regional league, Durham/Northumberland 1, for promotion to North 1 East. The bottom two clubs are relegated to Yorkshire 2.
