The league sits at Level 2 on the Western Australian league system (Level 3 of the overall Australian league system).

Format
The league operates with a promotion and relegation system. Promotion for the Champion of the Division to the National Premier Leagues Western Australia (NPL WA) was introduced for the 2015 season, but is subject to eligibility criteria.[2] Mandurah City were the 2015 champions but did not meet all of the Football West eligibility criteria to be promoted to the 2016 National Premier Leagues WA.
The team that finishes bottom of the table is relegated to the Football West State League Division 2, with potential relegation to Division 2 for the second bottom team via a promotion/relegation playoff.
