The Premier Division remained with the same 18 clubs as before, after the 2020–21 season was declared null and void. This was to be reduced to 16 clubs for the 2022–23 season, with at least 4 clubs being relegated depending on promotion and relegation with the Lowland League. The league title went down to the final round of matches with Tranent Juniors ultimately winning the league on goal difference ahead of Penicuik Athletic.
