First Division NB: The First Division is divided into two different geographical regions, the Coastal Stream and the Inland Stream. The League was streamlined in 1998 when a 30-team structure was divided into 16 teams in the Inland Stream and 14 in the Coastal Stream, with the winners of each stream gaining promotion to the Premiership. Teams relegated are joining National second division divided into nine provinces.
