The 2022–23 Championnat National 2 was the 25th season of the fourth tier in the French football league system in its current format. This season the competition was contested by 64 clubs split geographically across four groups of 16 teams. The teams included amateur clubs (although a few are semi-professional) and the reserve teams of professional clubs. The competition started on 20 August 2022 and completed on 3 June 2023.[2]
On 13 July 2022, the FFF ratified the constitution of the competition, and published the groups.[3]
Changes from the 2021-22 season were:
The top team in each group were promoted to 2023–24 Championnat National.
Due to the restructuring of the French football leagues, this season the bottom five teams in each group were relegated to 2023–24 Championnat National 3, along with the two worst performing eleventh-placed teams. This performance was calculated based on the performance of each eleventh-placed team in matches against the teams finishing 6th to 10th.[6]
