If I change it to the following it works. Changed ' to " around \n
<?php
  $TeamsFile = 'teams.txt';
  $fp = fopen($TeamsFile, 'w');
  $theLeagueO = 'Spring 2011;
  $theLeagueO = $theLeagueO . "\n";
  fwrite($fp, $theLeagueO, strlen($theLeagueO));
  $theLeagueO = 'Spring 2012;
  $theLeagueO = $theLeagueO . "\n";
  fputs($fp, $theLeagueO, strlen($theLeagueO));
  fclose($fp);
?>
Then the file contains
Spring 2011
Spring 2012

Further testing now on PHP 5.2.14
The following code works in that it puts out a newline
The teamsta.txt file looks like this
Spring 2011
Spring 2012
<?php
  $TeamsFile = 'teamsta.txt';
  $fp = fopen($TeamsFile, 'w');
  $theLeagueO = 'Spring 2011';
  $theLeagueO = $theLeagueO . "\n";
  fwrite($fp, $theLeagueO, strlen($theLeagueO));
  $theLeagueO = 'Spring 2012';
  $theLeagueO = $theLeagueO . "\n";
  fputs($fp, $theLeagueO, strlen($theLeagueO));
  fclose($fp);
?>

The following code does not put out a newline.
File teamsta1.txt contains
Spring 2011\nSpring 2012\n
<?php
  $TeamsFile = 'teamsta1.txt';
  $fp = fopen($TeamsFile, 'w');
  $theLeagueO = 'Spring 2011';
  $theLeagueO = $theLeagueO . '\n';
  fwrite($fp, $theLeagueO, strlen($theLeagueO));
  $theLeagueO = 'Spring 2012';
  $theLeagueO = $theLeagueO . '\n';
  fputs($fp, $theLeagueO, strlen($theLeagueO));
  fclose($fp);
?>
Not sure if this is the correct behavior as I have seen examples online of both that are said to work.

Please retest with a supported build of PHP (ie 7.4 or above)
