Botola Pro 2, commonly known as Botola 2 (formerly known before as the Groupement National de Football 2), is the second division of the Moroccan football league, behind the Botola, the highest football league in Morocco. It features 16 teams across the country that compete for the top two positions in the competition which at the end of the season allows them promotion to the Botola. Each season as well, the 3 bottom teams are all relegated to the third-level, Division Nationale.

IR Tanger and MA Tétouan are the most successful clubs in the competition with 6 coronations for each. COD Meknès is the title holder.

History

[edit]

The Moroccan national championship was run under the auspices of three federations from 1915 to 1917 (USFSA - CR Maroc), 1917 to 1921 (Fédération Marocaine des Sports Athlétiques), and 1921 to 1957 (Moroccan League of Association Football) during the French Protectorate in Morocco.

The championship of the first division promotion, as it was known at the time since its founding in 1924, ran concurrently with the Moroccan Division of Honour competition and consisted of two groups: the North and the South. The clubs who placed first and second in each of the division's two regions—the Chaouia League and the Sultanate League—then advanced to the semi-finals, where a single champion and his runner-up would face off. obstacles on the ascent.

During Morocco's French Protectorate, which ran from 1915 to 1956

[edit]

The Independence Cup was established in 1956, the year of independence, to divide the clubs into various categories for the next United Kingdom championship season. In order to replace the clubs below (the French protectors' clubs) in the first division, the top teams in the competition that are not among the elite will compete in play-off matches.[1]
