The Premier Division Trophy is engraved 'Premier Invitation Division for West Midland Amateur Basketball League' and was presented to the League by Keith Tomkin. The 1st presentation was made at the end of the inaugural season 1965-66 to Old Norts who went on to dominate the league for the 1st four years. Keith Tomkin was Secretary of the Basketball Federation and helped establish the Officials Federation which was established in the early 1960's. He was a member of the West Midland League committee and fondly remembered by his contemporaries as one of our more eccentric referees. The Premier Division has remained an invitation league to the present day.
