The East of Scotland League’s twin First Division ‘conference’ sit at Tier 7 of the SFA’s “pyramid”, below the East of Scotland Premier Division.
The twelve clubs will play each other twice and each club from First Division B once to give a league programme of 34 games. Matches in this league usually kick off at 2.30pm, with earlier starts in mid-winter at grounds with no floodlighting.
The champions of each First Division conference will be automatically promoted to the East of Scotland Premier, with the runners up playing off for a third promotion spot.
