Liga 2 is the second level of league competition for Georgian women's football since the 2021 season.

Contents

As a single nationwide league below the top level, it is the female equivalent of the men's Erovnuli Liga 2 and is run by the Georgian Football Federation.

History

As the number of women's football teams experienced a rapid increase in the late 2010s, the football-governing body of the country decided to establish another league in addition to the existing Liga 1. [1]

The first competition, launched in 2021, comprised eight clubs. Dinamo Sokhumi dominated their rivals throughout the season and recorded 14 wins in as many matches with a staggering 107–7 goal difference. [2] The league featured eleven teams in 2022, expanded to 15 a year later when Elita shared points with Racha at top of the table and emerged victorious due to an advantageous goal difference. [3] [4]

In 2024, Samegrelo became the league champions after winning their all 26 matches. [5] This year saw two clubs gaining automatic promotion and a third-place team qualifying for a top-division spot following a play-off victory. [6]

Format

Current members

Fourteen teams are competing in the league in 2025. The champion will gain promotion while the second-place team will qualify for playoffs. [7]
