Structure
The league comprises 108 teams (6 groups of 18 teams). Over the course of a season, which runs annually from September to the following June, each team plays twice against the others in the league, once at 'home' and once 'away', resulting in each team competing in 34 games in total. Three points are awarded for a win, one for a draw and zero for a loss. The teams are ranked in the league table by points gained. In the event that two or more teams finish the season equal in all these respects, teams are separated by head-to-head points, then head-to-head goal difference, then head-to-head goals scored, then goal difference and then goals scored.
At the end of the season, the top team of each group and the winner of the promotion play-off are promoted to the Primera Catalana. The loser of the relegation play-off and the bottom three teams of each group are relegated to Tercera Catalana. The Segona Catalana promotion play-off consists in two legs on a home-and-away basis played by teams finishing in 2nd place, and the winner is promoted to Primera Catalana. The three last teams of each group play the Segona Catalana relegation play-off like the promotion play-off format.
