The Premier League has been running since the 2006/2007 season when Divisions 1 and 2 were launched, and has been expanded for the 2010/2011 season with the introduction of Division 3.  Premier League Netball is the highest level of club netball in the country and the teams that make up the 3 divisions have come through a gruelling county, regional and national pathway to take one of the coveted 30 places.

The Champion of Premier League 2 and 3 each season automatically gains promotion into the next league up, whilst the team at the bottom of the league table in Division 1 and 2 is automatically relegated to the division below.  Playoffs between Divisions 1 and 2, and 2 and 3 determine which league each team will play in for the next season, whilst the winning teams from each region meet the bottom three from Division 3 in a playoff weekend to decide who will take their place in the National League and who will return to their Regional leagues.
