North West Counties League
The North West Counties Football League is a football league in the north west of England.
The league was formed in 1982 by the merger of the Cheshire County League and the Lancashire Combination, and now covers the whole North West England region, from Stoke-on-Trent up to the Lake District. It is one of the three feeder leagues to the Northern Premier League, alongside the Northern League and the Northern Counties East League.
The only club to have played in the First Division of the North West Counties League every season since its inception is St Helens Town.
