The Belgian Provincial leagues are the lower leagues for Belgian football. It is divided into 9 regional league systems (one for each province, but Flemish Brabant and Walloon Brabant are merged and contain also the football teams from the Brussels Capital Region). Each league system is itself divided into 4 levels (except for Luxembourg where there are only 3). The number of leagues at each level depends on the province, but every province must have only one league at the top level. The best teams from the 9 first divisions can promote to the Belgian Promotion, the lower and fourth level in the national leagues (either directly, or after playoff matches).
