Scottish Division One is the highest division of the Scottish Football League and the second highest in the Scottish football league system.
The division contains ten teams and each year the top team may be promoted to the Scottish Premier League, pending the correct stadium criteria. The bottom club will automatically be relegated and the second bottom club will go to an end of season play-off with the second, third and fourth placed clubs from Division Two. The teams play each other four times with three points for a victory and one point each for a drawn game.

The future
Three member clubs (Clyde F.C., Hamilton Academical F.C. and Livingston F.C.) are proposing a restructuring system, which would see the current First Division teams “break away” to form a second tier to the Scottish Premier League (SPL). These plans are at a very early stage and are facing strong opposition from lower-league clubs and Scottish Football League bosses.
