Current: 2023–24 Lliga Elit

The Lliga Elit, originally named Superlliga Catalana, is the 6th tier of the Spanish football league system and the highest league in the autonomous community of Catalonia. The league was formed in 2022 to replace Primera Catalana as the first level of Catalonia, starting from the 2023–24 season.

The Lliga Elit arose because the FCF considered it necessary to create a transition league between the regional and national divisions of Spanish football with the aim of helping Catalan teams to establish themselves in professional football.

Structure

The league comprises 16 teams. Over the course of a season, which runs annually from September to the following May, each team plays twice against the others in the league, once at 'home' and once 'away', resulting in each team competing in 30 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. The top two teams of the season will be promoted to Tercera Federación, while a third team will be promoted after winning a play-off between the clubs placed between third and sixth place of the season. The four worst teams of the season will be relegated to Primera Catalana, the new seventh level of competition.
