The league came into existence under the 'Central' name for the 2006–07 season, although a 'Fife District league' had been in place below the East Super League since 2002–03, using the structure of a common 'East Region' top tier and lower regional divisions in place of the old structure of three separate regional leagues in that part of Scotland, with the Fife Junior Football League the historic local competition.
The Central Division was dissolved for the start of the 2013–14 season and member clubs were split between two expanded North and South divisions as part of a wider East Region league restructuring.[1]
