The Scottish Junior Football East Region South Division also known for sponsorship reasons as the McBookie.com East Premier League South, is the second-tier division of the East Region of the Scottish Junior Football Association and sits parallel with the East Region Premier League North.
The league came into existence in time for the 2006–07 season, replacing the older regional setup. It was expanded for the start of the 2013–14 season by absorbing the more southerly clubs from the dissolved East Region Central Division as part of league reconstruction in the East Region.[1]
Up until season 2017/18, there was a Premier League at tier 2 and North and South Divisions at tier 3. The large-scale movement of clubs to the East of Scotland League has resulted in the structure being flattened. It comprises 12 clubs who each play each other home and away to give 22 league fixtures.
