About the league
The Finland Kolmonen, also known as Division 3, is the fourth tier of the Finnish football league system. The league has a long history, dating back to 1973, and is governed by the Football Association of Finland. The top teams in the Kolmonen typically include local clubs and reserve teams of higher-tier clubs, such as IPS Edustus, HaPK, and Kultsu FC. The competition format consists of 104 teams divided into 9 regional groups, with each team playing the others in their group home and away. The winners of each group are promoted to the Kakkonen, the third tier of Finnish football. Notable achievements include the promotion of teams like Klubi-04, the reserve team of HJK Helsinki, to higher tiers. The Kolmonen is a semi-professional league, with a relatively small following, but it plays an important role in the development of Finnish football, providing a platform for smaller clubs and young players to compete and improve.
