1962–63 Western Football League

Western Football League
Season 1962–63
Champions Bristol City Reserves

The 1962–63 season was the 61st in the history of the Western Football League.

The champions for the seventh time in their history, and the second time in succession, were Bristol City Reserves. This season marked the last time that a reserve team won the Western League.

The league was increased from 20 to 22 clubs after two new clubs joined:

1 The system of using goal average to separate two teams tied on points was used up to and including the 1976–77 season.

2 The points system: 2 points for a win, 1 point for a draw and 0 points for losing.

3 The tables as published at the time contained errors, hence the totals do not balance in some columns.
