Tribute Cornwall 1 is an English level nine rugby union league for clubs based in Cornwall, which has been running continually since 1987–88. The champions are promoted to the Tribute Cornwall/Devon league, and the runner-up plays the second team in Tribute Devon 1, with the winning team gaining promotion. One or two teams are usually relegated to Tribute Cornwall 2. For the two seasons, 2009–10 and 2010–11, the size of the league was increased to twelve teams by amalgamating with Cornwall League 2. With the re-introduction of Tribute Cornwall 2 in 2011–12, the league was reduced to seven teams playing each other three times to make eighteen games each.[1] For the current season the league consists of eight teams playing each other twice. Saltash are the most successful team having won the league on five occasions and have been runners-up three times; they currently play in Tribute Western Counties West.

Lanner won the 2015–16 title, in only their second season in league rugby, following promotion last year from Cornwall League 2. Camborne School of Mines finished second and will play Topsham from Devon 1 for the remaining promotion place to the Cornwall/Devon League

Current season

The 2015–16 Tribute Cornwall League 1 consists of eight teams; each team playing the others twice, home and away. The season started on 10 October 2015 and the last league matches were played on 16 April 2016.
