The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is the second-highest league in the Florian football league system and is contested by 24 clubs. Each season, the two top-finishing teams in the Championship over a three year period are automatically promoted to [[Super League Football]] with the teams placing 3rd qualifying for the Relegation playoff with the 18th placed [[SLF]] team. The teams which finish 22nd to 24th are relegated to [[Florian League 3]]. The Championship is one of the most competitive non-top flight leagues on Micras alongside the [[Senyan League|Second League]].
==History==
The SLF Championship was formed in early 2019 as the new second tier of Florian association football. It was originally known as '''SLF 2'''. The league had 12 teams and under the SLF 2 name, one season was played. However, after discussions with the SLF, the league was restructured with eight of the team being promoted to the SLF. The remaining teams were relegated to the third tier. The current version of the Championship started in 2021-22 with selected teams from the lower leagues and four relegated teams from the SLF. Clubs had to meet requirements regarding stadium size, finances and fanbase. Clubs with 6,000 capacity stadiums or poor finances were rejected.
 
==League structure==
The league comprises 24 teams. Over the course of a season, which runs annually from August 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 46 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, then goal difference, then goals scored and then their head-to-head record for that season. If two or more teams finish the season equal in all these respects, then teams are separated by alphabetical order, unless a promotion, relegation or play-off place is at stake.

2021–2022 SLF Championship

The SLF Championship is the second-highest league in the Florian football league system and is contested by 24 clubs. Each season, the two top-finishing teams in the Championship over a three year period are automatically promoted to Super League Football with the teams placing 3rd qualifying for the Relegation playoff with the 18th placed SLF team. The teams which finish 22nd to 24th are relegated to Florian League 3. The Championship is one of the most competitive non-top flight leagues on Micras alongside the Second League.

History

The SLF Championship was formed in early 2019 as the new second tier of Florian association football. It was originally known as SLF 2. The league had 12 teams and under the SLF 2 name, one season was played. However, after discussions with the SLF, the league was restructured with eight of the team being promoted to the SLF. The remaining teams were relegated to the third tier. The current version of the Championship started in 2021-22 with selected teams from the lower leagues and four relegated teams from the SLF. Clubs had to meet requirements regarding stadium size, finances and fanbase. Clubs with 6,000 capacity stadiums or poor finances were rejected.

The league comprises 24 teams. Over the course of a season, which runs annually from August 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 46 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, then goal difference, then goals scored and then their head-to-head record for that season. If two or more teams finish the season equal in all these respects, then teams are separated by alphabetical order, unless a promotion, relegation or play-off place is at stake.
