Serie D
Season2023–24

The 2023–24 Serie D is the seventy-fourth season of the top level Italian non-professional football championship. It represents the fourth tier in the Italian football league system.

Rules

The season will provide a total nine promotions to Serie C (those being the winners of all nine groups). Teams placed between second and fifth for each group will play a so-called "playoff tournament", starting with two one-legged games played at the best placed team's home venue:

  • 2nd-placed team vs 5th-placed team;
  • 3rd-placed team vs 4th-placed team.

In case of a draw by the end of the game, two extra times will be played; in case of no winner after that, the best-placed team will advance to the final.

The two winning teams will then play a one-legged final, to be hosted at the best placed team's home venue, with the same rules as in the first round. The nine playoff winners for each group will be prioritised to fill any potential Serie C league vacancies.[1]

The two bottom-placed teams for each league group are automatically relegated to Eccellenza. Two two-legged relegation playoff games (known in Italian as "play-out") will therefore be played between:

  • 13th-placed team vs 16th-placed team (for 18-team groups), or 15th-placed team vs 18th-placed team (for 20-team groups);
  • 14th-placed team vs 15th-placed team (for 18-team groups), or 16th-placed team vs 17th-placed team (for 20-team groups).

In case of an aggregate draw after the second leg, two extra times will be played; in case of further aggregate draw, the worst-placed team will be relegated.

In case the two teams will have a league gap of at least eight points, the relegation playoff will not take place and the worst-placed team will be automatically relegated instead.[2]

Teams

The composition of the league involves nine divisions, grouped geographically and named alphabetically.

Teams relegated from Serie C

The following teams were relegated from the 2022–23 Serie C:

Viterbese, who were originally relegated from Serie C, did not apply to take part in the new season.[3]

Teams promoted from Eccellenza

The following teams were promoted from Eccellenza:[4]

PO Promoted as national playoff winners. CI Promoted as Coppa Italia Dilettanti semi-finalists, due to all other three semi-finalists (Cast Brescia, Campobasso and San Marzano) having been directly promoted to Serie D.

Relocations, mergers and renamings

  • Vis Artena handed its participation league rights to Roma City.[5]

Exclusions

On 14 July 2023, the Serie D football committee announced Viterbese and Arzachena had not submitted their league applications, whereas Torviscosa had renounced their right to take part to the season.[6]
