Location of teams in 2021–22 East of Scotland Football League Premier Division

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.

Clubs that finish second to seventh in each conference will form part of a First Division of 16 clubs and the remaining clubs will make up the Second Division in 2022–23.
