The 2024 Russian Second League Division B is the second season of Russia's fourth-tier football league. The season began on 30 March 2024 and will end on 16 November 2024.

Overview[edit]

In the summer of 2023, the Russian Second League was reorganized and split into two tiers - third-tier Russian Second League Division A and fourth-tier Russian Second League Division B.[1] Division B also switched to the spring-to-autumn, March-to-November schedule. 2023 was a transitional half-year season.[2] 2024 season is the first full-length season.

Division B is split into 4 groups, mostly based on geographical location. At the end of the year, four winners of their groups will be promoted into the Division A Second Stage Silver Group. Four bottom teams from the Division A First Stage Silver Group will be relegated to 2025 Division B.

Team movement[edit]

At the end of the 2023 season, Mashuk-KMV Pyatigorsk, Khimik Dzerzhinsk, Kaluga and Torpedo Miass were promoted to Division A as winners of their Division B groups. Forte Taganrog, Amkar Perm, Chertanovo Moscow and Salyut Belgorod were relegated to Division B from Division A.

Torpedo-2 and Peresvet Domodedovo were relegated from Division B. SKA Rostov-on-Don and Zorkiy Krasnogorsk voluntarily dropped out.[3][4] Sakhalinets Moscow and Khimik-Avgust Vurnary dissolved their professional squads.[5][6] Krasnoye Znamya Noginsk failed licensing for the season.[7]

Elektron Veliky Novgorod moved to Nizhny Novgorod and was renamed to Volna Nizhny Novgorod Oblast.[8]

Pobeda Khasavyurt, Dynamo Stavropol, Kolomna, Orenburg-2 and Akron-2 Tolyatti, which finished the 2023 season in relegation spots, were kept in the league because of the other teams dropping out.

New teams were Angusht Nazran, Lada-Tolyatti, Nart Cherkessk, Oryol, Sokol Kazan and Stroitel Kamensk-Shakhtinsky (promoted from the Russian Amateur Football League), Krylia Sovetov-2 Samara, Pari NN-2 Nizhny Novgorod, Rostov-2 and Spartak-2 Moscow (farm clubs of the Russian Premier League teams).[9][10][11][12][13][14]
