Season ends with immediate effect – Lowland League Statement

Posted on Monday, April 13th, 2020

The Lowland League Board have issued the following statement in respect of the 2019/20 Season.   We would like to offer our congratulations to Kelty Hearts on being awarded the title.

“The board of the SLFL have today decided to end the league competition with immediate effect. The board took into account the points per game average based on the standings at the cessation of football on the 13th March, and as such have declared that Kelty Hearts are this season’s champion Club.

“Furthermore, the board would like to make it clear that it feels that no member club should be disadvantaged by the current health crisis we face, and as such there will be no relegation from the SLFL in season 2019/20. We are aware of the implications for our fellow pyramid leagues, the EoSFL and SoSFL, and will announce contingency plans to cover this in due course.”

We’d like to thank everyone for the support throughout the season.  We’ll post updates as and when the come available as we plan for the next campaign.  In the meantime, please stay at home, protect the NHS and save lives.
