Wikipedia - Promotion League
The Promotion League, named the Hoval Promotion League for sponsorship reasons, is the third tier of the Swiss football league system. Eighteen clubs compete in the league, playing each other twice over course of the season. The champions are promoted to the second tier, the Challenge League, while the bottom two teams are relegated to the 1st League Classic.
The league forms the semi-professional bridge to amateur football.
History
The league was introduced as the 1. Liga Promotion beginning with the 2012–13 season as part of a restructuring that saw the Challenge League reduced from 16 to 10 teams. This was done to decrease the competitive gap between it and the Super League by converting it to a purely professional league. The Promotion League would therefore serve as the semi-professional link to amateur football. The 1. Liga was consequently renamed to 1. Liga Classic, before reverting again in 2013 when the former adopted its current name. For its maiden season, six teams were relegated from the Challenge League, while the rest joined from the division below. In March 2020, the ongoing season was canceled after 17 games due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2020–21 season suspended until further notice.
The league was expanded to 18 teams for the 2022–23 season and the number of allowed U21 teams is unrestricted.
The Switzerland 1.Liga Promotion is an exciting and competitive soccer tournament that serves as a crucial stepping stone for clubs aspiring to ascend to the higher echelons of Swiss football. This tournament features teams from the 1.Liga, the third tier of Swiss football, competing fiercely for promotion to the Challenge League, the second tier.
Held annually, the tournament showcases a blend of emerging talent and seasoned players, all vying for glory and the opportunity to elevate their clubs to new heights. The format typically includes a series of matches where teams battle it out in a league-style competition, culminating in playoffs that determine which clubs will earn promotion.
Fans can expect thrilling matches filled with passion, skill, and determination as clubs from across Switzerland come together to demonstrate their prowess on the pitch. The tournament not only highlights the rich footballing culture of Switzerland but also serves as a platform for clubs to gain recognition and for players to showcase their abilities to scouts and fans alike.
With its vibrant atmosphere, dedicated fan bases, and the promise of promotion, the Switzerland 1.Liga Promotion tournament is a must-watch for soccer enthusiasts and a pivotal moment in the journey of many clubs aiming for success in Swiss football.
