Ajloun, Al-Ordon Lil-Fursia, Hay Al-Amir Hasan, Moab, Sahl Horan, Shabab Al-Hussein, Shabab Talbieh and Tafila are the most recent promoted teams from the 2024 season, as a result of a restructuring of the Jordanian Second Division League by the Jordan Football Association.[1]
Format
The league consists of a non-fixed number of teams, which are then divided into groups of 4, 5, or 6 teams according to geographical distribution. The first and second placed teams in each group, as well as the top-ranked 6 teams, qualify to the round of 32.[2]
The round of 32 and round of 16 matches will be held in a single-match knockout system, while the rest of the tournament consists of a two-legged tie system.[3]
The teams that qualify for the semi-finals of the competition get automatically promoted to the Jordanian Second Division League.[4]
