Champions
1920-39
The league originally consisted of a single section of 12 clubs, and had reached a stable membership of 14 clubs when it was abandoned on the outbreak of
World War II.
1945-46
For the first post-War season, the league operated two regional divisions, East and West.
1946-52
After a single split format, the league reverted to a single division for the next six seasons.
1952-83
A second division was instituted in 1952. A two-division format continued for over 30 years, the only deviation being in the 1962-63 season when the terrible winter made the league impossible to finish. The normal league competitions were abandoned and a set of emergency competitions were played for in the second half of the season.
1983-Present
After a two division format had proved sufficient for over 30 years, a third division was added in 1983. While the top two divisions were for clubs holding senior status with the Sussex FA, the new Division Three was (and still is) for clubs of intermediate status.
