The Zhejiang Football Super League (ZSL) is a league of football teams from Zhejiang, China. Formed in 2003, the leagues sits at level 5–6 on the pyramid system. There are 8 teams in 2 divisions separately. It is a feeder to the CMCL.

The league organised by the Zhejiang Football Association, is the top league of Zhejiang Province.

Format

[edit]

The ZSL is divided into 2 divisions of 8 teams each, starting from season 2020.

Teams in Division A play each other twice in the league (home and away), receiving three points for a win and one point for a draw. No points are awarded for a loss. At the end of each season, the club with the most points is crowned ZSL Division A champions. There is no established format for the Division B, and the tournament system is temporarily used for season 2020 and 2021.

Promotion and relegation

[edit]

CMCL / Division A

[edit]

Division A / Division B

[edit]

The champions of Division B are directly promoted to the Division A, swapping places with the bottom club of Division A. The club finishing 2nd in Division B, and the 7th placed team in Division A then enter the play-off to decide a place in next season.[1]

Division B / lower-level leagues

History

[edit]

Zhejiang Football Cities Championships League

[edit]

Created in 2003, Zhejiang Football Cities Championships League (ZCCL) is the first province-level association football league in Zhejiang, and its predecessor was the Zhejiang Football Association Cup (founded in the 1980s). The first season gathered 5 teams to participate, playing each other 2 ties, with Ningbo Xinyongjiang winning the first title. Because ZCCL had become an affiliated league to the Chinese Football Association Bing League by the time, the winning team qualified for that season's China Football Amateur League, but Hangzhou Sinobal took the entry instead of Ningbo Xinyongjiang.

After 13 years of development, by season 2015, the ZCCL had expanded to 14 member teams.

Name changing

[edit]

In season 2006, the league changed its name to Zhejiang Football Super League.[2] The first season under current name, 11 teams gained entry, and Ningbo Yinbo won the championship. In season 2020, the league extended to 16 teams and split into 2 divisions.[3]
