The 2016 Scottish Women's Premier League season is the 15th season of the Scottish Women's Premier League, the highest division of women's football in Scotland since its inception in 2002.
Since this season the Premier League was split into two division of eight teams each. Effectively reducing the top-level teams from 12 to 8. The change was made to increase competitiveness in the league. The divisions are named SWPL 1 and SWPL 2.
In the first season after the reduction to eight teams a new format is played. Teams will play each other three times, with the bottom placed team being relegated after the season. The split into a championship and relegation group is discontinued.
Teams will play 21 matches each.
