2022–23 National League

The 2022–23 National League season, known as the Vanarama National League for sponsorship reasons, was the eighth season under English football's new title of the National League, the twentieth season consisting of three divisions, and the forty-fourth season overall.

This season saw the expansion of North and South divisions to 24 teams each, a planned increase which was originally scheduled in 2019 to occur ahead of the 2021–22 season.[1] However, after the curtailment and voidance of the 2020–21 season for both North and South, promotion and relegation were postponed.[2] For those reasons, the implementation of expansion plans was delayed until 2022–23.[3]
