Isthmian League Premier Division 2016-17

Farnborough were required by the Isthmian League to pay their creditors in full before the league's 2016 AGM. If this was not fulfilled, the league would relegate the club from the Premier Division to Step 4, and Burgess Hill Town would be reprieved from relegation.

On 12 May 2016 league constitution was announced. The Premier Division will feature six new clubs:
 * AFC Sudbury, promoted as champions of Division One North
 * Folkestone Invicta, promoted as champions of Division One South
 * Harlow Town, play-off winners in Division One North
 * Havant & Waterlooville, relegated from National League South
 * Lowestoft Town, relegated from National League North
