2009–10 Serie D

Serie D

Season	2009–10
← 2008–09 2010–11 →

The 2009–10 Serie D was the sixty-second edition of the top level Italian non-professional football championship. It represented the fifth tier in the Italian football league system. It consisted of 167 divided into six 18-team divisions, one 19-team division and two 20-team divisions.

The regular Serie D season started September 6, 2009. Each team played two matches against every other team in its own division; a total of 34 matches for 18-team divisions, 36 matches for the 19-team divisions, and 38 matches for the 20-team division. The nine division winners were automatically promoted to Lega Pro Seconda Divisione for the 2009–10 season, while the two last-placed teams are automatically relegated to Eccellenza.

After the regular season is complete, teams placed 6th-last through to 3rd-last in each division play a double-leg series (6th-last vs 3rd-last, 5th-last vs 4th-last) where the winners remain in Serie D the following season and the two losers are also relegated to Eccellenza for a total of 4 relegations in each division, 36 in total for the league. There are no playoffs if the difference between two teams is bigger than eight points.

The nine division winners enter a tournament to determine the over-all Serie D champion and is awarded the Scudetto Dilettanti.

Teams placed second through fifth in each division enter a playoff tournament after the regular season as well. Eventually, a final game determines which team finishes first and which teams comes in second in this 36-team playoff, and these teams may be bumped up to Lega Pro Seconda Divisione if one or more current Seconda Divisione teams runs into financial difficulties or is penalized.

Promotion playoffs

Promotion playoffs involved a total of 37 teams; four from each of the nine Serie D divisions (teams placed from 2nd through to 5th) with

Matera, winner of Coppa Italia Serie D

that is directly admitted to the Semi-final round.

Rules

• The first two rounds were one-legged matches played in the home field of the best-placed team.
• The games ending in ties were extended to extra time. New for the 2007–08 season, the higher classified team was declared the winner if the game was still tied after extra time. Penalty kicks were not taken.
• Round one matched 2nd & 5th-placed teams, and 3rd & 4th-placed teams within each division.
• The two winners from each division played each other in the second round.
• The nine winners – one each from the nine Serie D divisions – were then split into three groups of three teams each. Every team played two matches, one against each of the other two opponents within the group. The three group winners qualified for the semifinal round, joining Matera.
• The semi-finals were two-legged matches, and the respective winners moved on to play in a one-legged final hosted in a neutral ground.
• The tournament results provided a list, starting with the winner, by which vacancies could be filled in Lega Pro Seconda Divisione

First round

• Played on May 26, 2010
• Single-legged matches played at best placed club home field: 2nd-placed team plays home 5th-placed team, 3rd-placed home team plays home 4th placed team
