The Scottish Women's First Division (SWFL 1) was the third tier of women's football in Scotland. It was split into North and South regions, with one team from each region promoted to SWPL 2. Teams were relegated into one of four Regional Scottish Women's Second Divisions. For the 2020 season, the league was replaced as the third tier by the SWFL Championship.[1]
