      The original Warwickshire 1 was a tier 8 league with promotion up to Staffordshire/Warwickshire and relegation to Warwickshire 2. At the end of the 1991–92 season the merging of all Staffordshire and Warwickshire leagues meant that Warwickshire 1 was discontinued for the years that these leagues were active.

      Restructuring of the Staffordshire/Warwickshire leagues ahead of the 1996–97 season saw the reintroduction of a single Warwickshire league, which along with its counterpart Staffordshire was a tier 9 league. Promotion was to Staffordshire/Warwickshire 1 and there was no relegation until the reintroduction of Warwickshire 2 at the end of the 1999–00 season.

At the end of the 2005–06 season Warwickshire 1 was cancelled and all teams transferred to the newly introduced Midlands 5 West (South) and Midlands 6 West (South-East) divisions.
