The 2025–26 West of Scotland Football League (known as the Greenversity West of Scotland League for sponsorship reasons) was the sixth season of the West of Scotland Football League, with its top division as part of the sixth tier of the Scottish football pyramid system.
From the 2026–27 season, a new Lowland Football League structure is being introduced with two divisions of 16 teams running concurrently known as Lowland League East and Lowland League West. As a result, the 2025–26 season was a transitional season with 9 teams from the Premier Division promoted to Lowland League West.
After four previous runner-up finishes, Auchinleck Talbot won the Premier Division for the first time, finishing six points clear of Cumnock Juniors.
Background At the Lowland Football League AGM in May 2025, a new league structure was announced to be introduced from the 2026–27 season. The league is transitioning into two parallel divisions to be known as Lowland League East and Lowland League West. Membership would be based on geographic boundaries with the South of Scotland Football League and the West of Scotland Football League becoming feeder leagues for Lowland League West. To fill league membership up to 16 teams plus one guest team, two teams were promoted from the 2025–26 South of Scotland Football League alongside as many teams as necessary from the 2025–26 West of Scotland Football League Premier Division from those eligible. To be eligible, a club must be club licensed with the Scottish Football Association.
After Clydebank were promoted to the Lowland League, one new club – East Kilbride YM – were admitted to the league.
Premier Division
Having finished as runners-up in each of the four previously completed Premier Division seasons, Auchinleck Talbot won the Premier Division for the first time, going the last fourteen games unbeaten to overhaul Cumnock Juniors and Troon, ultimately winning the league by six points from Cumnock Juniors.
Team changes Defending champions Clydebank were promoted to the 2025–26 Lowland Football League. Benburb, Gartcairn and Darvel were relegated to the First Division while Arthurlie, Rutherglen Glencairn, Renfrew and Kilwinning Rangers were promoted.
