The '''Essex Senior Football League''' is an English men's [[Association football|football]] league. It contains clubs from the [[Essex FA]], [[Hertfordshire FA]], [[London FA]], [[Middlesex Football Association|Middlesex FA]] and the [[Amateur Football Alliance]].<ref name=history /> It is a feeder league to Division One North of the [[Isthmian League]] and has a single division which sits at Step 5 (or Level 9) of the [[National League System]].<ref name=history />

==Founder members==
The Essex Senior League was formed in 1971 with nine founder members.  The finishing positions for the 1971–72 season were as follows:

==Promotion and relegation==
The Essex Senior League states that a club must finish in the top 3 to be considered for promotion to the [[Isthmian League]] Division One North.<ref name=history>{{cite web|title=Brief History|url=http://www.essexseniorleague.co.uk/esl.php?page=history|website=The Official Web Site of the Essex Senior Football League|publisher=Essex Senior League|access-date=23 April 2015|archive-url=https://archive.today/20150423110425/http://www.essexseniorleague.co.uk/esl.php?page=history|archive-date=23 April 2015|url-status=dead|df=dmy-all}}</ref> However the process is governed by the FA Leagues Committee<ref name=handbook /> who regulate relegations and promotions throughout the National League System. As of the 2014–15 season FA rules for Step 5 divisions such as the Essex Senior League stipulate that the champions should be offered the first chance of promotion. If the champions do not wish to be promoted or are not able to meet the entry requirements for promotion then the 2nd or 3rd placed team may be considered for promotion. Under normal circumstances, only one club can be promoted from a Step 5 league (''e.g.'', the Essex Senior League) to a Step 4 league (''e.g.'', the Isthmian League Division One).<ref name=nls-doc>{{cite web|title=National League System 2014–15|url=http://www.thefa.com/~/media/files/thefaportal/governance-docs/rules-of-the-association/2014-15/national-league-system-rules-2014-15.ashx|publisher=The FA|access-date=23 April 2015}}</ref>

In exchange for the promoted club, the Essex Senior League would typically receive a relegated club from a Step 4 league.<ref name=history /> Relegated clubs of Step 4 leagues are allocated an appropriate league based on their geographical locations.<ref name=nls-doc /> Thus the Essex Senior League is most likely to receive one of the relegated clubs from the Isthmian League Division One North.

There was no relegation from the Essex Senior League into a lower league since there was no Step 6 equivalent to the ESL<ref name=history /> until the 2017–18 season. Leagues including the [[Essex Olympian League]] (Step 7) sometimes acted as a feeder league to the Essex Senior League but promotion and relegation between the two leagues was not automatic.<ref name=nonleaguematters>{{cite web|title=Essex Senior Football League|url=http://www.nonleaguematters.co.uk/divisions/26/|website=Non-League Matters|access-date=23 April 2015}}</ref> A Step 6 division for Essex and [[East Anglia]] was announced in October 2017 to solve the relegation problem. Since 2018–19, the [[Eastern Counties League]] controls this new division.<ref name=Step6/>
