The West Lancashire Football League is a football competition based in northern England, consisting of five divisions – three for first teams (Premier, One and Two), and two for reserve teams.
It became the West Lancashire League in 1908, and over the years the qualification area was gradually extended.
The league was re-established in 1959, with a small membership of clubs from the Blackpool area.
The league had a rapidly changing membership, but continued to prosper, with a third senior division being formed for the 1998–99 season.
The league now covers the whole of modern Lancashire, plus areas of Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Merseyside, and even West Yorkshire.
