Football league season
Seconda Divisione 1924–25 was the lower championship of the Lega Nord.
Different from the higher championship, it was structured into four local groups.[1]
Regulations
It had four groups of ten clubs, with eighteen match days; however, the finals possessed four clubs and six match days.
Two of the participating teams were promoted to the First Division and the other two to test-matches.
