Liga 2 is the second level of league competition for Georgian women's football since the 2021 season.
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]
According to new regulations introduced for the 2026 season, only the winner will be eligible for promotion to Liga 1.[7]
