The 1883–84 season was the 11th season of competitive football in Scotland. This season saw the introduction of the British Home Championship, with Scotland winning the inaugural contest. In addition, two further regional competitions were played for the first time with the inaugural Forfarshire Cup and Stirlingshire Cup.
Vale of Leven asked for a postponement to the date of the Scottish Cup Final due to bereavements, illness etc. but the Scottish Football Association refused and awarded the cup to Queen's Park.
