Location of teams in the 2007–08 Irish First Division

Loughgall were the champions, but were not promoted to the 2008–09 IFA Premiership as they did not apply for a place. Bangor finished fourth and were the only team from the First Division to apply for a place in the following season's top division, and were granted a place ahead of other incumbent top-flight clubs.
