Gourt Home::Gourt :: Scottish Football League Third Division
The Scottish Football League Third Division is the third highest division of the Scottish Football League and the fourth highest overall in the Scottish football league system.
The division contains ten teams and, until recently, each year the top two teams are promoted to the Second Division. Now the 2nd, 3rd and 4th placed teams go into a play off with the 9th place team from the league above. There is no relegation from the league but as from the 2005/06 season if a club finishes bottom for three successive seasons then they will be demoted from the league. The teams play each other four times, with three points for a victory and one point each for a drawn game.
