SWF National Leagues Fixtures Released

Last updated : 24 July 2024 By ed_Scottish Fitba

C:WindowsTempphp629F.tmpFixtures have been published for the 2024/25 Scottish Women’s Championship and League One, which will see newly promoted Stenhousemuir and Falkirk face each other in the opening day of Scotland’s third tier.

In what is shaping up to be the most competitive and high-profile Championship season yet, Stenny will welcome their local rivals Falkirk on 11th August, in a fixture that provided good crowds and plenty thrills in League One over the last two seasons.

The third season of the two competitions as national leagues will see the new-look Championship grow to 12 teams, welcoming League One champions Stenhousemuir, Falkirk and Forfar Farmington from the lower league, and Stirling University and Glasgow Women from SWPL2.

League One is bolstered by Armadale Thistle, Dunipace, Inverurie Locos and Kilwinning, who were promoted from the regional leagues, with SWFL West champions Dunipace welcoming SWFL North winners Inverurie Locos to Denny on the opening day.

The inaugural 2022/23 season saw Livingston promoted to SWPL2 as winners of the Championship, while last season both double winners Rossvale and runners-up Ayr United won promotion to SWPL2.

Stenhousemuir lifted the 2023/24 League One trophy at Meadowbank, after a nail-biting three-way title contest that went down to the final day.

All fixtures for the national leagues are published on the SWF website scotwomensfootball.com.
