From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2024–25 season is the 54th in the history of the Essex Senior Football League, a football competition in England.

The allocations for Steps 5 and 6 this season were announced by The Football Association on 17 May 2024.[1] Solely for this season, there were no relegations from Step 4 into the league.

The league featured 17 clubs which competed in the division last season, along with three new clubs.

Tilbury were champions with Sporting Bengal United winning the playoffs. Both were promoted to the Isthmian League. Coggeshall Town finished bottom of the league and were relegated to the Eastern Counties Football League.
