Teams

Due to competition reorganization there were no teams promoted from a lower tier. The Second League was created by combining 10 less fortunate teams that previously played in the First League with 8 better teams that previously played in the Transition League. The other 10 less fortunate teams of the last season Transition League were moved to the newly established lower tier also named Transition League where they will compete with better amateur teams.
