The Premier Division featured 15 clubs which competed in the division last season, along with three new clubs:
The club finishing the season in second position was initially required to play in an inter-step playoff with a team from step 4. Due to ground grading failures higher up the pyramid, three step 4 clubs were reprieved, and the three step 5 runners-up with the highest PPG (points per game) were automatically promoted. Rugby Town were one of those three.
