The 2024–25 Gozo First Division (known as the BOV GFL First Division for sponsorship reasons) is the 78th season of the Gozo Football League First Division, the highest division in Gozitan football. The season began on 6 September 2024 and ends in April 2025.[1]
Teams
[edit]The league consisted of seven teams (the top seven teams from the previous season). 2023–24 seventh-placed First Division team Għajnsielem defeated Sannat Lions (Second Division runners-up) in a play-off to keep their place in the league.[2] Nadur Youngsters entered the season as defending champions.[3]
2023–24 Gozo Second Division champions Victoria Hotspurs declined promotion and became the first Gozitan club to switch from the Gozo football league system to the Maltese, reducing the number of First Division teams by one to seven teams.[4]
