The Maltese National Amateur League II (referred to as the IZIBet Amateur League for sponsorship reasons[1]) is the fourth-highest and lowest division in Maltese football. It will be played as from the 2024–25 season, following the split of the former Maltese National Amateur League into two levels.[2]
Over the course of the season, each team will play each other twice for a total of 18 games. Three points are awarded for a win, one for a draw and zero for a loss. The teams are ranked in the table by total points gained. In the need of a tie-breaker, a play-off game is played.
In the 2024-25 season, for the first time ever in Maltese and Gozitan football - which operate two separate league systems, a club which used to play in the Gozo football league system will feature in the Maltese one. The club that made the historic switch was Victoria Hotspurs, which were admitted to the National Amateur League II.[3] They became champions in their first season in the competition.[4]
