The 2022β23 South West Peninsula League season was the 16th in the history of the South West Peninsula League, a football competition in England, that feeds the Premier Division of the Western Football League. The league was formed in 2007 from the merger of the Devon County League and the South Western League, and, with the exception of Bridport in Dorset, features clubs based in Cornwall and Devon. The two divisions of the South West Peninsula League are on the same level of the National League System as the Western League Division One (Step 6).
The constitution was announced on 12 May 2022. [1]
With a view to a merger between the South West Peninsula League and the Western League in 2023β24, four clubs were to be automatically promoted from each division to Step 5, depending on ground grading. The fifth-placed clubs may also have been promoted, on a PPG (points per game) basis. [2] However, the FA scrapped the merger in February 2023 after a breakdown in negotiations, and promotion was reverted to one club per division. [3]
