The Humber Premier League was formed in 2000 and sits at the 11th tier of the English football pyramid. It began as a single division and expanded to include a Division One for the 2005–06 season. Reckitts won the league five times in the first six seasons of its existence.

The league is based primarily in the East Riding of Yorkshire, although some north Lincolnshire clubs participate. It feeds the Northern Counties East League. So far, few clubs have taken the step up due to its status as a relatively new league and the general lack of hierarchical football structure in the Yorkshire area. However in 2015 Hull United were promoted from this league into the Northern Counties East League.[1]
