The Saudi Women's Second Division League officially the SAFF Women's Second Division League (Arabic: دوري الدرجة الثانية للسيدات السعودي) is the third-tier of women's football in Saudi Arabia.
History & format
In November 2023, the board of directors of the Saudi Arabian Football Federation approved the establishment of the Women's Second Division League,[1] in light of the continued growth of women's football in the country.[2] In January 2024, the federation finalized the format of the Women's Second Division League. The competition consists of two phases, a regional group stage with home-and-away fixtures, followed by a centralized final stage. The top teams from each group will progress, with the champion and runner-up earning promotion to the First Division, while two teams will be relegated from the same.[3] In October 2024, it was announced that 25 teams will take part in the inaugural edition. The teams will compete in the group stage in a regionally centralized format, with matches played in a double round-robin system (home and away). Eight teams will qualify for the final stage, which includes the top five teams and the three best second-placed teams.[4] The final rounds will be held in a centralized format, starting with the quarter-finals in a single-elimination format, where the first and second-placed teams in the final stages will be promoted to the First Division for the next season.[4]
