The

2003-04 Zurich Premiership while Sedgley Park and Nottingham were promoted from the 2003–04 National Division Two.[1][2][3] Rotherham almost went into liquidation and dropped out of the leagues following their relegation from the Premiership but were saved by a local consortium which enabled them to continue playing in National One.[4] As well as new teams Coventry had a new ground, moving from Coundon Road to the smaller but more modern Butts Park Arena.[5][6]

By the end of the season, after two seasons spent in the division,

Henley were relegated to the 2005–06 National Division Two.[8][9][10]
