The East of Scotland League’s First Division sits at Tier 7 of the SFA’s “pyramid”, below the East of Scotland Premier Division.
Together with the Second and Third Divisions, it replaces the previous ‘Conference’ structure that was in place following the large influx of Junior clubs in 2019.
The sixteen clubs in this division will play each other twice to give a league programme of 30 games.
