2003–04 Wessex Football League

The 2003–04 Wessex Football League was the 18th season of the Wessex Football League, and the last in which the league consisted of a single division. The league champions for the first time in their history were newcomers Winchester City. There was no promotion to the Southern League, but two clubs were relegated to a new Division Two for 2004–05, as the league was restructured and two new divisions were added.[1]
