Postponements
On 8 September 2022, the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) referees threaten to not attend any Matchday 1 as part of their continue strike for higher wages. As a result, all Liga F matches scheduled for 10–11 September were postponed after clubs were ready to play, but referees did not participate.[1][2][3][4]
On 15 September 2022, a deal was reached between the parties to end the strike, which paved the way for the league season to start.[5]
Sponsorship
On 6 October 2022, the LPFF announced the telecommunication company Finetwork (stylized finetwork) would become the official league sponsor for the next three seasons. As a result, the league will be renamed finetwork Liga F.[6]
