Fourteen teams competed from August, 1991 until May, 1992 for the Stones Bitter Championship, Premiership Trophy and Silk Cut Challenge Cup.

At the end of the season, players from several clubs were selected to go on the 1992 Great Britain Lions tour of Australia and New Zealand.

For the third consecutive season Wigan finished top of the pile, relegated were Swinton and Featherstone Rovers.

To date this is Swinton's last appearance in the top flight and more trouble would follow after this relegation their ground Station Road was sold following mis-management.

The club are still without a permanent home within the town's boundaries.
