[[File:SJFA East Region.jpg|thumb]] 
The '''[[Scottish Junior Football Association]], East Region''' is one of two regions of the SJFA, which currently organises the [[Midlands Football League|Midlands League]] and local cup competitions.

The SJFA was previously split into six regions, but in 2002 the decision was taken to reform into three to try to ensure more games between the top clubs and hence increase their revenues; at that time the East Region was created by amalgamating the former [[East Junior Football League|East (Lothians)]], [[Fife Junior Football League|Fife]] and [[Tayside Junior Football League|Tayside]] Regions. From 2017, the majority of the region's ~60 member clubs left the SJFA to join the [[East of Scotland Football League]] within the [[Scottish football league system]]'s pyramid structure. in 2021, what remained of the East Region (17 Tayside clubs) was integrated into this 'senior' pyramid as the Midlands League alongside the relatively unchanged [[Scottish Junior Football Association, North Region|SJFA North Region]] divisions, below the [[Highland Football League]] – the third SJFA region, [[Scottish Junior Football Association, West Region|West]], had already disbanded a year earlier and formed its own divisions in the senior pyramid.

==League structure==
===Until 2006–07===
For season 2002–03, twelve clubs from the [[East Junior Football League|East (Lothians)]], [[Fife Junior Football League|Fife]] and [[Tayside Junior Football League|Tayside]] leagues in the eastern part of Scotland combined to create the [[Scottish Junior Football East Region Super League|'''East Super League''']]; this was fed by the existing regional leagues: '''Tayside Premier''' (with ''Tayside Division One'' below), '''Fife District League''' and '''Lothians Division One''' (with ''Lothians Division Two'' below.) A similar change occurred in the west of Scotland where the [[Ayrshire Junior Football League|Ayrshire]] and [[Central Junior Football League|Central]] leagues merged entirely to form a [[Scottish Junior Football Association, West Region|West Region]]. A year earlier, the [[Scottish Junior Football Association, North Region|North Region]] was renamed, but this had no impact on the system itself.

===2006–07 to 2012–13===
In 2006, a further reorganisation led to the creation of another region-wide tier below the East Super League, known as the [[Scottish Junior Football East Region Premier League|'''East Premier League''']]. Below this, the Regional leagues were streamlined into single [[Scottish Junior Football East Region Premier League North|'''North''']] (Tayside), [[Scottish Junior Football East Region Central Division|'''Central''']] (Fife) and [[Scottish Junior Football East Region Premier League South|'''South''']] (Lothians) Divisions. To balance the numbers in these new leagues, the majority of [[Perthshire]] clubs were re-allocated from the North to the Central Division (exceptions to this were [[Blairgowrie F.C.|Blairgowrie]] and [[Coupar Angus F.C.|Coupar Angus]] who remained in the North Division setup).

As of the end of 2006–07 season, clubs were promoted and relegated between the Super League and the Premier League. One club from each of the lowest-tier divisions would be promoted to the Premier League, with three Premier League sides relegated to a regional division corresponding to their geographical area.

===2013–14 to 2016–17===
As agreed at the 2011–12 East Region AGM, the leagues were restructured into four divisions from the 2013–14 season. The Super League and Premier League were expanded from twelve to sixteen clubs while the regional divisions were merged into two from the current three and branded as '''[[Scottish Junior Football East Region Premier League North|North]]''' and '''[[Scottish Junior Football East Region Premier League South|South]]'''; clubs in the Central division were split between the two new leagues on a geographical basis.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.perthshireadvertiser.co.uk/perthshire-sport/perthshire-football/2012/06/22/junior-football-pa-friday-june-22-73103-31234148/|title=Junior Football – PA Friday June 22|newspaper=[[Perthshire Advertiser]]|date=22 June 2012|access-date=23 June 2012}}</ref> The League Cup competitions which traditionally opened the season were also scrapped as part of these proposals.

=== 2017–18 to 2018–19 ===
In 2017, [[Kelty Hearts F.C.|Kelty Hearts]] left the league to join the [[East of Scotland Football League]] in the [[Scottish football league system|senior pyramid]]. The following April, thirteen clubs—most of them from the East Juniors—moved to the East of Scotland League for the [[2018–19 East of Scotland Football League|2018–19 season]]. When the window for applications was extended, even more East Region clubs quit the Junior grade, bringing the total of clubs leaving Junior football that summer to 24:<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44408030 |title=East of Scotland League vote signals exodus of 24 junior clubs |work=BBC Sport |publisher=BBC |date=8 June 2018 |access-date=8 June 2018 |first=Brian |last=McLauchlin}}</ref>

The loss of clubs caused the league to restructure from four divisions to three, effectively removing the Premier League and rearranging the 36 clubs into a 12-team '''Super League''' with two 12-team '''North''' and '''South''' divisions below.<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.fifetoday.co.uk/sport/glenrothes-thornton-hibs-and-kennoway-star-hearts-in-east-superleague-2018-19-1-4759410|title=Glenrothes, Thornton Hibs and Kennoway Star Hearts in East Superleague 2018-19 |newspaper=Fife Today |first=Craig |last=Turnbull |date=28 June 2018 |access-date=25 June 2018}}</ref> [[Glenrothes F.C.|Glenrothes]] and [[Kinnoull F.C.|Kinnoull]] also made the move to the senior pyramid in summer 2019.

=== From 2019–20 ===
The entire region was split into north and south sections, each containing a 10-team '''Super League''' and a 8 or 10-team '''Premier League''' below. Four clubs joined the South Premier League: Bo'ness United Junior, Linlithgow Rose Community, Syngenta, and [[Sauchie Juniors F.C.|Sauchie Juniors]] Community.

In April 2020, the [[2019–20 in Scottish football|2019–20 season]] was declared null and void due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic in Scotland|COVID-19 pandemic]],<ref>{{cite news |last1=Wilson |first1=Fraser |title=Phil McGuire bewildered by null and void decision that has cost Carnoustie Juniors title despite leading table since day one |url=https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/phil-mcguire-bewildered-null-void-21885797 |access-date=22 April 2020 |work=Daily Record |date=18 April 2020}}</ref> and the next month it was confirmed that a further eight clubs, mostly from Fife, were leaving the East Juniors for the East of Scotland League:

For the [[2020–21 East Premiership|2020–21 season]], the remaining 30 clubs were merged into a single tier split into a Tayside League and Lothian League, later renamed '''Premiership North''' (17 clubs) and '''Premiership South''' (13 clubs). Matches restarted on 21 November 2020, but the season was declared null and void again on 16 March 2021.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.scottishjuniorfa.com/news/posts/2021/march/202021-season-ends/ |title=2020/21 SEASON DECLARED NULL AND VOID |publisher=Scottish Junior Football Association |access-date=13 May 2021 |date=16 March 2021}}</ref>

Also in April 2021 it was announced that discussions were ongoing for clubs in the East Premiership North to form [[Midlands Football League|Midlands League]] at Tier 6 in the [[Scottish football league system]], that would ultimately see clubs in the Midlands League play off against those in the [[North Caledonian Football Association|North Caledonian League]] and [[Scottish Junior Football North Super League|North Superleague]] for a place in the [[Highland Football League|Highland League]].<ref>{{Cite web|last=Inglis|first=Scott|title=Tayport excited about move into new Midlands division|url=https://www.fifetoday.co.uk/sport/football/international/tayport-excited-about-move-into-new-midlands-division-3192854|access-date=22 May 2021|website=Fife Today|date=8 April 2021}}</ref> Although there was no official announcement of the league's formation, the East Region announced the fixtures for the [[2021–22 Midlands Football League|2021-22 season]] straight away on 21 June, with 19 clubs shown as league members, [[Dundee St James F.C.|Dundee St James]] and [[Letham F.C.|Letham]] being new clubs in addition to all members of the [[2020–21 East Premiership#North|2020–21 East Premiership North]]. <ref>{{Cite web|title=MIDLAND LEAGUE FIXTURES RELEASED|url=https://www.scottishjuniorfa.com/news/posts/2021/june/midland-league-fixtures-released/|access-date=2021-07-30|website=Scottish Junior FA|language=en}}</ref>

==Cup competitions==
There are a number of cup competitions in the East Region:
* '''East Region League Cup''' - Known as the ''Thorntons Property East Region League Cup'' under a sponsorship arrangement, this tournament was introduced for the 2018–19 season to compensate for a reduced number of league fixtures. <ref>{{cite web |title=THE THOMSONS PROPERTY EAST REGION LEAGUE CUP - KIRKCALDY YMCA FC |url=https://www.kirkcaldyymfc.co.uk/content.php?pg=sipg&pd=1023 |website=Kirkcaldy YMCA FC |access-date=16 October 2018 |language=en}}</ref>
*'''North and Tayside Inter-Regional Cup''' - Known as the ''Quest Engineering Cup'' for sponsorship purposes, this is a knockout tournament for Midlands League and [[Scottish Junior Football Association, North Region|North Region]] clubs and is administered by a joint committee. First played for in 1988, clubs play early rounds in their own region with eight sides from each area progressing to the last sixteen.
''Inactive''

* Prior to league reconstruction in 2013, clubs also competed in one of three League Cup competitions at the beginning of the season:
** '''DJ Laing League Cup.''' This tournament was for former [[Tayside Junior Football League|Tayside Region]] clubs excluding Perthshire sides affiliated to the [[Scottish Junior Football East Region Central Division|Central Division]]. Clubs initially competed in groups (sections) with the group winners advancing to a knockout semi-final stage. In all league cup competitions, matches in the group stages were played under league rules so a player was not [[cup-tied]] by turning out for a particular club.
** '''ACA Sports League Cup.''' This tournament was for former [[Fife Junior Football League|Fife Region]] clubs and all other teams affiliated to the Central Division. Clubs initially competed in four groups, with group winners advancing to a knockout semi-final stage.
** '''Dechmont Forklift League Cup.''' This tournament was for former [[East Junior Football League|East (Lothian) Region]] clubs. Clubs initially competed in four groups, with group winners advancing to a knockout semi-final stage.

* '''Fife & Lothians Cup''' - Known as the ''V Tech SMT Fife and Lothians Cup'' under a sponsorship arrangement, this tournament dates back to regionalisation in 1968 and is a knockout tournament for former [[East Junior Football League|East (Lothians)]] and [[Fife Junior Football League|Fife Region]] clubs in the current East Region. It is administered by a separate Fife & Lothians committee.
* '''East of Scotland Cup''' - Known as the ''DJ Laing East Region Cup'' under a sponsorship arrangement, this is a [[Single-elimination tournament|knockout]] tournament for all Midlands League clubs. The competition dates back to 1896–97 and was the most prestigious cup trophy in the former East Region.
