The 2021–22 season was the 115th in the history of the United Counties League, a football competition in England. The league operated three divisions in the English football league system for the first time since the 1979–80 season. These are the Premier Divisions North and South at Step 5, both firsts in the league, and Division One at Step 6.
The allocations for Steps 5 and 6 were announced by The Football Association on 18 May 2021,{{cite news |title=We have provided an update on NLS allocations at Steps 3-6 for the 2021-22 season |url=https://www.thefa.com/news/2021may/18/nls-allocations-20210518 |publisher=The Football Association |access-date=4 July 2021 |date=18 May 2021}} and were subject to appeal.
After the abandonment of the 2019–20 and 2020–21 seasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic in England, numerous promotions were decided on a points per game basis over the previous two seasons.{{cite web |title=Coronavirus: All football below National League to end |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/52052351 |publisher=BBC Sport |access-date=4 July 2021 |date=26 March 2020}}{{cite web |title=FA provides update on NLS Steps 3-6 |url=https://www.thefa.com/news/2021/feb/24/nls-steps-3-6-update-20210224 |publisher=The Football Association |access-date=4 July 2021 |date=24 February 2021}}{{cite web |title=EXPLAINED: The 2021-22 Non-League restructure |url=https://www.thenonleaguefootballpaper.com/latest-news/390045/explained-the-2021-22-non-league-restructure/ |website=The Non-League Paper |access-date=4 July 2021 |date=12 April 2021}} As part of the National League System's restructure, the FA's Alliance and Leagues Committees recommended the league's expansion to gain another Step 5 division.{{cite news |title=UCL to expand |url=https://theucl.co.uk/2021/04/13/ucl-to-expand/ |access-date=4 July 2021 |work=Uhlsport United Counties Football League |date=13 April 2021}} At the end of the past season, Shepshed Dynamo left the league through promotion to the new Northern Premier League Division One Midlands, the only former Premier Division club to do so.
