Scottish Premier League History
The Scottish Premier League (SPFL) was formed in 2013 by the merger of the Scottish Premier League (SPL) and the Scottish Football League (SFL). The merger was aimed at creating a more financially sustainable and competitive league system in Scottish football, with the top four tiers of the Scottish league system falling under the jurisdiction of the SPFL. The SPFL has since become the top professional football league in Scotland, featuring some of the most historic and passionate football clubs in the world.
