It is recalled that last season seven teams were found in the corresponding procedure, but in the end all except Agrotiko Asteras were promoted to Super League 2. This season it is the league’s will to prevent that from happening should a gap arise again it will not be replaced but nothing should be taken for granted.

The Ascension Process

The mini league will be played in ten games and will end on June 25th. All teams play each other home and away and also have two days off. The draw was made by lottery before the end of the regular season in the 3rd national league.

The criteria for the tie are the performance of the two teams in each other’s games, then goal difference, and then best attack. In the event that the teams are still tied, a match will be played at a neutral venue and only if it has a significant stake (e.g. if there is a tie between 4th and 5th place in all criteria gives).
