3rd Bohemian Football League (; ÃÂFL) is one of the third level football leagues of the Czech Republic (the other is the Moravian-Silesian Football League). The league comprises teams from the historic Bohemia region.
The league was formed in 1991 during the Czechoslovakia era, replacing the former II. ÃÂNL (II. ÃÂeská národni liga; Second Czech National League) at the third tier of Czechoslovak football alongside sister league MSFL. In 2024, the league was renamed 3. ÃÂeská fotbalová liga to include a number indicating the level in the system of Czech football competitions in accordance with the new regulations.
The winner of ÃÂFL is promoted to Czech National Football League. In total three clubs are promoted to the ÃÂFL - the winner of Divize A, the winner of Divize B and the winner of Divize C.
The format of the league was unconventional in that it did not allow draws. As of the 2014âÂÂ15 season, if a match is tied, the winner is decided by a penalty shootout. The winner of the shootout gets two points and the loser gets one. From season 2019âÂÂ20 on, Junior league (with B teams of first-league clubs) was canceled and the B teams were moved into the ÃÂFL and MSFL. The competition was divided into two groups with 16 teams in each.
Since the 2021âÂÂ22 season, the teams are again awarded by 3 points for a win and 1 point for a tie.
