Tercera División RFEF - Group 1 About
Tercera División RFEF - Group 1, also known as Spanish Tercera Federación Group 1, is a men’s league in Spain’s fifth tier, serving the Galicia region. It forms part of the nationwide Tercera Federación structure, connecting Galicia’s regional football with the national semi-professional divisions and providing a sporting route towards the Segunda Federación.
Identity and role in Spanish football
The competition is the highest regional division for clubs from Galicia within the fifth level of the Spanish football pyramid. Its role is both competitive and developmental: it gives established clubs, ambitious regional sides and eligible reserve teams a pathway towards national football, while allowing the strongest teams in the Galician regional divisions to progress on sporting merit.
The modern competition was formed in 2020 during the restructuring of Spain’s lower divisions. Its recorded history spans seasons associated with the transition from 2019 through the latest recorded season in 2025. The group remains distinct from the regional divisions below it and from the Segunda Federación above it, combining a geographically focused league programme with a promotion route that extends beyond Galicia.
The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) governs the competition, working with the Galician Football Federation (RFGF), which oversees its day-to-day regional administration. The arrangement allows the group to follow national regulations while retaining a clear territorial identity.
How clubs enter
Clubs generally qualify through promotion from Galicia’s regional competitions, including the Preferente Autonómica or Preferente Galicia divisions. Teams relegated from the Segunda Federación may also enter the group, making the division a meeting point for promoted regional clubs and sides moving down from the national tier.
Reserve teams of higher-division clubs are eligible to compete, subject to the rules governing their relationship with their parent club. A reserve side cannot be promoted to the same level as that parent club. Reserve teams are also ineligible for the Copa del Rey, even when their league position would otherwise place them in contention.
Regular-season format
Tercera División RFEF - Group 1 normally consists of 18 clubs. The regular season uses a double round-robin format: every team plays every other team twice, once at home and once away, for a total of 34 matches per club. The schedule usually runs from September to May, giving the group a conventional European football calendar before the promotion play-offs extend the season into June.
Matches use the standard league scoring system of three points for a win, one for a draw and none for a defeat. When teams finish level on points, ranking is determined first by their head-to-head points, followed by head-to-head goal difference. If the teams remain level, overall goal difference and then total goals scored are considered. These criteria make individual fixtures between promotion rivals particularly important, as the outcome of a direct meeting can influence the final table beyond the points gained on the day.
Promotion and relegation
The group champion wins direct promotion to the Segunda Federación. The teams finishing from second to fifth enter a promotion play-off designed to provide an additional route out of the division. The opening regional phase is contested within Group 1, with the leading qualifiers drawn into a bracket that commonly includes second versus fifth and third versus fourth. The successful side then advances to a national phase against a play-off winner from another territorial group. Victory in that final national round secures one of the additional nationwide promotion places.
The bottom three teams are normally relegated to the Galician regional divisions. The exact number can change because relegation and promotion movements in the Segunda Federación affect the composition of the group. A larger-than-usual flow of Galician clubs down from the tier above can therefore create additional relegation places, while the final allocation depends on the applicable regulations and the season’s overall movements.
Play-off rules and sporting stakes
Regular-season matches last 90 minutes. In play-off ties, a drawn match or aggregate score can lead to 30 minutes of extra time. If the tie remains unresolved, the higher-seeded team—normally the side that finished higher in the regular-season table—usually progresses without a penalty shoot-out. The seeding advantage rewards consistency over the full league campaign and gives finishing position a practical value even to clubs that miss out on direct promotion.
Promotion is the central objective, but the group also carries cup-related rewards. The champion qualifies for the following season’s Copa del Rey, while eligible non-reserve clubs can compete for the Copa Federación. Reserve sides remain subject to the separate restrictions that apply to them, including exclusion from the Copa del Rey.
Why the group matters
Tercera Federación Group 1 provides Galicia with a structured bridge between regional amateur football and the national game. Its 18-team league rewards sustained performance across a long home-and-away campaign, while the play-offs preserve an opportunity for strong challengers to reach the Segunda Federación after finishing outside the title position. With promotion, relegation, reserve-team eligibility and cup access all shaping the season, the competition is more than a regional league: it is a key part of the football pathway linking Galician clubs to Spain’s wider national system.
