History
Zhejiang Football Cities Championships League
Created in 2003, Zhejiang Football Cities Championships League (ZCCL) is the first province-level association football league in Zhejiang, and its predecessor was the Zhejiang Football Association Cup (founded in the 1980s). The first season gathered 5 teams to participate, playing each other 2 ties, with Ningbo Xinyongjiang winning the first title. Because ZCCL had become an affiliated league to the Chinese Football Association Bing League by the time, the winning team qualified for that season's Bing League, but Hangzhou Sinobal took the entry instead of Ningbo Xinyongjiang.
After 13 years of development, by season 2015, the ZCCL had expanded to 14 member teams.
Name changing
In season 2006, the league changed its name to Zhejiang Football Super League.[2] The first season under current name, 11 teams gained entry, and Ningbo Daxie Yinbo won the champion. In season 2020, the league extended to 16 teams and split into 2 divisions.[3]
