Whitworth and Michael Savage Cups
The two main cup competitions within the league are the Whitworth Cup and the Michael Savage Trophy. The Whitworth Cup was open to just the top 16 teams in the league, but that has now been reduced to 8, a First round, Semi-Finals and The Final. The Mick Savage trophy was open to the 2nd XI's of the teams in the Whitworth Cup. However it seems that the format of this will change after the change in the format for the 2008 for the Whitworth Cup.
The League is one of the 4 that provides the 8 teams for the Yorkshire Council's Premier League and Division One Play-Offs.

Famous quotes containing the words savage and/or cups:
“Many readers judge of the power of a book by the shock it gives their feelings—as some savage tribes determine the power of muskets by their recoil; that being considered best which fairly prostrates the purchaser.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
“What a devil hast thou to do with the time of the day? Unless hours were cups of sack, and minutes capons, and clocks the
tongues of bawds, and dials the signs of leaping-houses, and the blessed sun himself a fair hot wench in flame-colored
taffeta, I see no reason why thou shouldst be so superfluous
to demand the time of the day.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
