The Scottish National League is an ice hockey league based in Scotland comprising eleven teams.

The league is at the third-tier of the ice hockey league structure in the United Kingdom below the Elite Ice Hockey League (EIHL) and the National Ice Hockey League (NIHL).

Following the demise of the British National League at the end of the 2004–05 season, the Fife Flyers and Dundee Stars transferred to the SNL, raising both the league's profile. Both teams have however since left the SNL and now compete in the highest tier of United Kingdom Ice Hockey, the Elite Ice Hockey League (EIHL).
