The Gwent Premier League (known as the Autocentre Gwent Premier League for sponsorship reasons) is a football league in South Wales, consisting of 3 divisions, named the Premier Division, Division One and Division Two. The Premier Division is a feeder to the Ardal Leagues, and therefore sits at tier four of the Welsh football pyramid.

Contents

The league was formed in 1980 as the Gwent County League from a merger of the Monmouthshire Senior League and the Gwent Premier League. In 2019 it was renamed to the Gwent Premier League. [1]
