History

Originally known as the JFF Tier 2, the league's inaugural season was played in 2022.[1]

Promotion/Relegation

The top two teams in the JFF Championship are promoted to the Jamaica Premier League the following season. [2] Teams are relegated to and promoted from their regional Super Leagues, including the KSAFA Super League, South Central Confederation Super League, Eastern Confederation Super League, and Western Confederation Super League. Previously the top club from each of the four Super Leagues played each other to determine the two teams that qualified directly to the Premier League.[3]
