The 1st XI league consists of a Premier division of 10 teams, and 14 feeder divisions lettered A-H, regionalised to East and West in the C-H divisions.[2]

Prior to the 2013 season, it was possible to obtain a draw in a game if the side batting second was not bowled out, but since then each innings in a match is limited to a number of overs (which varies depending on the division) and the team with the higher total from their allotted overs wins.

The Premier Division teams for 2020 are: Bovey Tracey, Cornwood, Exeter, Exmouth, Hatherleigh, Heathcoat, Paignton, Plymouth, Sandford and Sidmouth.
