The winners (Limavady United) were promoted to the 2024–25 NIFL Championship. The runners-up (Armagh City) were also promoted after winning the NIFL Championship play-off. The bottom-placed team (PSNI) were relegated to Level 4.
The league consisted of fourteen teams; eleven teams remaining from the previous season, two teams promoted from Level 4, and one team relegated from the NIFL Championship. The two promoted teams were Coagh United (champions of the 2022–23 Ballymena & Provincial Football League) and Rathfriland Rangers (champions of the 2022–23 Northern Amateur Football League), increasing the number of teams by two. The relegated team was Warrenpoint Town, who were relegated from the 2022–23 NIFL Championship due to a licensing issue (replacing the promoted team of Bangor).
