Teams
Fort William had given notice to withdraw from the league after years of struggling, but new investors came forward and the club opted to continue for at least another season. Champions Cove Rangers failed to gain promotion in the play-offs, so the league membership remains unchanged.
All grounds are equipped with floodlights as required by league regulations.
