The situation was complicated by the mid-season withdrawal of Edinburgh City due to their parent men's club enduring financial problems;[1] their results were voided,[2] and the split took place after only 16 valid rounds, and the promotion group only comprising four clubs.
A national fourth tier, Scottish Women's Football League One, was also played under the same format with 10 teams taking part.
Having narrowly missed out on promotion in 2022–23 with a loss to Stirling University in the play-off,[3] Rossvale won the Championship to secure automatic promotion to SWPL 2 for the 2024–25 season[4] (Stirling University were the automatically relegated team coming down to replace them).
Ayr United finished runners-up to take part in the play-off against Glasgow Women,[6] which they won 4–3 to secure promotion.
[7] Due to the complications from Edinburgh City's withdrawal and the intention to again increase the membership of the Championship for the following season, it was confirmed that no team would be relegated, with Hutchison Vale retaining their place in the division despite having lost all their matches, including nine by margins into double-figures.
