Early league history

When league rugby was introduced in 1987, Stoke on Trent was placed in Midlands Division 1 and won promotion to Area 4 North in their first season. However, after two seasons they were relegated back to tier 5, having narrowly escaped relegation the previous season and in their relegation season of 1989-90 they lost every league game.[1] They won immediate promotion back to Area 4 North and stayed there until they were placed in a new fifth tier - Courage League Division 5 - following a league structure by the RFU. They remained in the North Division division until another restructure in 1996 saw them move back to the fourth tier - National 4 North - but after just a single season they were relegated to Midlands Division 1.
