'''1980's''': North Division One the top tier of Shinty. National final between winner of North Division One and [[South Division One (shinty)|South Division One]].
At various times in its history the North Division One has varied in regards to its status.


The North Division One was originally the Top Tier of shinty in the North of Scotland. From the early 1980s, there was a national league final with the winners of the South Division One, which could be considered a possible higher tier. However the advent of the [[Premier Division (shinty)|Premier Division]] in 1996, saw the North Division One become the undoubted second tier.
'''1996''': [[Premier Division (shinty)|Premier Division]] founded making North Division One the second tier of Shinty.


Between 1996 and 1999, the winners of North Division One and [[South Division One (shinty)|South Division One]] would play off to gain promotion to the top tier.
'''1996 to 1999''': Winners of North Division One and [[South Division One (shinty)|South Division One]] playing in National final with eventual winner gaining promotion to [[Premier Division (shinty)|Premier Division]].


Between 1999 and 2006, the North Division One became the third tier of the league system and with the advent of the National Division One the winners of North Division One and [[South Division One (shinty)|South Division One]] would play off to gain promotion to National Division One.
'''1999 to 2006:''' National Division One becomes third tier of shinty with advent of [[National Division One (shinty)|National Division One]]. Winners of North Division One and South Division One playing in National final with eventual winner gaining promotion to [[National Division One (shinty)|National Division One (2nd tier)]].


In 2007, the National Division One was removed, and the Division once again was the second tier of league shinty. The winners of the North Division One were guaranteed promotion to the Premier Division.
'''2007''': North Division One once again becomes the second tier of Shinty with the folding of [[National Division One (shinty)|National Division One]]. Champions guaranteed promotion to the [[Premier Division (shinty)|Premier Division]].


'''2009''': Ban on reserve teams being promoted abolished. [[Glenurquhart Shinty Club|Glenurquhart Reserves]] refuse promotion saving [[Lochcarron Camanachd|Lochcarron]] from relegation.
In theory, the bottom team in the Division should be relegated to North Division Two, however because that league is often won by clubs' reserve teams, this has not been a feature in recent years. As of 2009, the bar on reserve teams gaining promotion was removed but North Two champions, Glenurquhart refused promotion and therefore Lochcarron was saved from relegation.


'''2010 and 2011''': Winners of North Division Two refuse promotion preventing any relegations.
With no teams from the North relegated from the Premier Division in 2010 and 2011 and the reserve teams which won North Division Two refusing promotion, the league was left with seven teams, which would have resulted in only 12 games. Some clubs felt this was not good preparation for the rigours of the Premier Division if promoted and so, after consultation, a third fixture, which was to be a repeat of the first round of fixtures was implemented by the [[Camanachd Association]].[http://www.shinty.com/news/marine-harvest-north-div-1/]


'''2013''': Lochcarron take voluntary relegation leaving only six teams.
2013 saw the league reduced further by the voluntary relegation of Lochcarron to North Division Three. This resulted in a six team league which was won by Kilmallie after three rounds of fixtures. This rump league saw its top three teams promoted to a reinstated [[National Division One (shinty)|National Division One]] which commenced in 2014.


'''2014''': North Division One once again becomes the third tier of Shinty with the reinstatement of [[National Division One (shinty)|National Division One]] with North Division One champions being promoted through a play-off win.
2014 saw the league played for by a mix of first teams and second teams. Skye Camanachd won the league in 2014.
