The English football league system is a hierarchical structure of interconnected football leagues in England. It consists of multiple levels, with the Premier League at the top, followed by the EFL Championship, EFL League One, and EFL League Two. Below these are numerous regional and local leagues, allowing promotion and relegation between levels based on team performance. Promotion occurs when a team finishes at the top of its league, moving up to a higher division, while relegation sends lower-performing teams down. This system ensures competitive balance and provides opportunities for clubs of all sizes to progress through the ranks.
