Ligas Provinciales del Peru


The Ligas Provinciales del Peru are the Peruvian football lower divisions. They are administered by the Local Federations. The level immediately above is the Ligas Departamentales.
The Provincial Leagues of Peru are a stage of the Copa Perú, following the District Leagues, which each year produce a district champion and runner-up that qualify to compete in this competition organized by the respective federations in each province. The provincial champions and runners-up advance to the Departmental Stage, where teams from the different provinces of the same department compete. The departmental champions and runners-up then progress to the National Stage, where they face teams from across the country. The champion is promoted to the Ligas 2, while the runner-up is promoted to the Ligas 2 or Ligas 3.
