2023–24 Hellenic Football League

Football league season From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2023–24 Hellenic Football League season was the 71st in the history of the Hellenic Football League, a football competition in England. The league operates two divisions, the Premier Division at Step 5 and Division One at Step 6.

The allocations for Steps 5 and 6 this season were announced by The Football Association on 15 May 2023.[1]

Beginning from this season, a four team play-off system was introduced at Step 5 (Premier Division) to guarantee a second promotion place to Step 4, replacing the inter-step play-off.[2]
