East of Scotland League – Premier Division 19-20

The East of Scotland League’s Premier Division sits at Tier 6 of the SFA’s “pyramid”, below the Lowland League and parallel with the South of Scotland League.

The sixteen clubs will play each other twice to give a league programme of 30 games.  Matches in this league usually kick off at 2.30pm, with earlier starts in mid-winter at grounds with no floodlighting.

There is no automatic promotion from the East of Scotland League, though the champions can play off against the South of Scotland League champions for a place in the Lowland League if they meet SFA Club License criteria.
