During the season 2018–19, overall 44 Montenegrin football clubs play in Montenegrin First League, Montenegrin Second League and Montenegrin Third League.
First and Second League have 10 members, while in three groups of Third League are playing 29 teams.
Below the Football Association of Montenegro (FSCG), there are three territorial sub-associations, founded by FSCG—its Football Associations of Central, South, and North regions. Every single club is a member of FSCG and their territorial sub-association.
During the past, many clubs that existed for some time were dissolved, temporarily closed, merged with another club or today have only teams that participate in youth leagues.
