Wikipedia - PFF League

The Pakistan Football Federation League B Division (Urdu: پاکستان فٹ بال فیڈریشن لیگ; abbreviated: PFFL) is a Pakistani professional league for men's football departments and clubs which are in the Pakistan football league system, and is the country's second-tier competition. Contested by 18 departments and clubs, it operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the top-tier Pakistan Premier League.

Each season, the two top-finishing teams from the PFFL's club phase and the departmental phase are automatically promoted to the Pakistan Premier League, and the winner of the final between club phase and departmental phase is crowned as the PFF League champion.

Pakistan Railways is the only club to have won the PFF League two times - their first in 2005–06 and the second in 2013–14. Current champions, Pakistan Navy are the only club to gain promotion to Pakistan Premier League after just one season in the PFF League, as they were relegated at the end of 2013–14 and won the PFF League in 2014–15. Baloch Quetta (club phase) and Masha United (departmental phase) are the current champions.

In 2021, the Pakistan Football Federation signed a partnership with Global Soccer Ventures to launch the Pakistan Football League (PFL), a franchised based football league which will be the main and sole professional football league of Pakistan and will be the country's first tier professional football league within the Pakistan football league system - the PFL will be independent of the semi-professional PPL (current Tier 1) and PFFL (current Tier 2).
