The Mining League (last sponsored by One and All Sports) was a football league competition based in Cornwall, UK, with three divisions. The First Division sat at level 13 of the English football league system, and the winning team could be promoted to the Cornwall Combination.

The league merged with the Falmouth & Helston League at the end of the 2010–11 season. Both leagues at the time of the merger had three divisions and had 45 teams. The new Trelawny League was introduced for the start of the 2011–12 season, once the Falmouth & Helston League celebrated its 50th anniversary.[1]
