Notes

  1. No promotion this season as division set to increase from 10 to 12 teams for 2000-01.
  2. Redcar, Novocastrians were also promoted. The reason for more promotions than usual was because Durham/Northumberland 1 was due to increase from 12 to 14 teams for 2009-10.
  3. Due to the increased number of teams being promoted from the division to Durham/Northumberland 1 there would be no relegation this season.
  4. 3 teams relegated due to relegations from higher leagues.
