The application process has begun for guest clubs to join the Lowland League for the 2022/23 season, the Scottish Lowland Football League have confirmed.
A majority of clubs voted at the start of April in favour to allow the reserve sides to continue in the league for another campaign after the 2021/22 season saw Celtic and Rangers B teams feature in the league for the first time in a pilot scheme.
The move would likely open the door for clubs such as Hearts who have previously expressed an interest in fielding a 'B' team in the league.
