The Lebanese Second Division (Arabic: الدوري اللبناني الدرجة الثانية) is the second division of Lebanese football. Established in 1933, it is controlled by the Lebanese Football Association.

History

Salam Achrafieh won the inaugural edition of the Second Division, in 1933–34, after beating Ararad 2–0 in the final. There was no promotion or relegation system at the time, so Salam Achrafieh remained in the Second Division. In April 1935, Second Division clubs requested a promotion system to be implemented. It was proposed that, at the end of the season, every Second Division team that wanted to be promoted to the First Division had to play against three teams from the First Division, one match each, winning all three. The teams from the First Division had to have at least seven players from their previous season's squad.

The Lebanon Division 2 is a prominent football tournament that showcases emerging talent and competitive teams across Lebanon. Serving as the second tier of Lebanese football, the league features a diverse array of clubs vying for promotion to the top division. Known for its passionate fan base and intense matches, Lebanon Division 2 provides a platform for aspiring players to demonstrate their skills and for clubs to build their squads. The tournament is characterized by its vibrant atmosphere, strategic gameplay, and the pursuit of excellence, making it a key fixture in Lebanon's football landscape.
