The Cambodian League 2 (Khmer: កម្ពុជាលីគ២, Kampuchea Lik 2 [kampuciə lik piː]), formerly the Cambodian Second League, is the second tier professional football league in Cambodia, managed by the Cambodian Football League Company (CFLC). It was first started in 2016 by the Football Federation of Cambodia.[1] The winners from each of the 6 regions of the third level, the Regional League (North, South, East, West, Middle, and Phnom Penh), and from the Hun Sen Cup are qualified to play in the Cambodian League 2. The winner of the League 2 gets promoted to the top division Cambodian Premier League the following season.[2]

Notes

  1. ↑ Since both Bati Academy and Ministry of National Defense Academy are reserve teams, they're ineligible for promotion. That leaves 4th place Soltilo Angkor to be promoted to the first division for the 2018 season.
  2. ↑ Since Electricite du Cambodge, National Police and Koh Kong fail to meet the requirement of national club licensing criteria, they're ineligible for promotion. That leaves runners up ISI Dangkor Senchey and 5th place Prey Veng to be promoted to the first division for the 2023-24 season.
