* Dover Athletic were deducted 12 points before the start of the season as a result of them failing to fulfil fixtures during the 2020-2021 campaign.
The league still had an uneven number of teams as a result of Bury being expelled from the Football League and Macclesfield Town going into liquidation. As a result, only three teams were relegated from the National League this season to even the numbers up for 2022-2023.
