Campeonato Nacional de Fútbol de Cuba
Football league / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Campeonato Nacional de Liga de Fútbol de Cuba is the top football division in Cuba. Currently, it is contested by 16 clubs and is divided into two tournaments – "Apertura" and "Clausura", with the last being the championship tournament. The champion of each tournament, decided via a playoff match ("Final"), are qualified to Supercopa Nacional de Fútbol de Cuba. The league currently has a fixed membership with each club being a representative of a Cuban province, which makes it one of the football leagues that does not have a promotion and relegation process.
