South of Scotland League 18-19

The South of Scotland League is a league competition which sits in the second tier of the SFA’s “pyramid”, below the Lowland League and parallel with the East of Scotland League.

There is no automatic promotion or relegation from this league – the winners take part in a play off with the East of Scotland League, if licensed.  The winners are entitled to enter into the Scottish Cup if they are not already a licensed SFA member club.

Wigtown & Bladnoch have returned after a year out, so the league will consist of 16 clubs, who play each other home and away to give a programme of 30 games.

Threave Rovers won the league last season but lost heavily to East of Scotland champions Kelty Hearts in the Lowland League promotion play-off.
