League table

Lowland League play-off

A three match round robin play-off will take place between the winners of the 2024–25 East of Scotland Football League, the 2024–25 South of Scotland Football League, and the 2024–25 West of Scotland Football League, subject to all three clubs meeting the required licensing criteria for promotion. If two clubs meet the criteria they will face each other home and away, if only one club meets the criteria they will be promoted without a play-off. However, if no club meets the criteria there will be no promotion to the Lowland League.[1]
