History
The Salvadoran Football Federation decided to improve the quality and competitiveness of football.
Segunda División, also called Liga B, was created in 1950 divided into two groups to contest within each group. The top sides of each group then contested in order that the winner directly promotes to Primera División.
Category of Ascent was made of 12 teams, four teams in each zone: central, western and eastern.[]
The founding 12 teams in Segunda División were ANTEL, Atlético Marte, Marte Soyapango, Caterpillar de San Salvador, Picapiedra del Plan de la Laguna, Antiguo Cuscatlán, Dragón, Once Municipal, Molino F. C, Ahuachapán and Puertas de Santa Ana y San Rafael.
The inaugural President of the Segunda División was Dr Mauro Alfredo Bernal Silva.
The number of teams increased up to twelve teams per zone (36 teams altogether). In 1986 the Legislative Assembly[] emitted a decree in the Reforms to the Law of Football and the Category of Ascent that Segunda División would be limited to only 24 teams split into two groups.
In 2007, Segunda División adopted an Apertura and Clausura format.
