More About Championship
The England Championship, often referred to as the Coca-Cola Football League Championship due to sponsorship reasons, is the top division of the Football League and the second-highest division in the English football league system, after the Premier League. The Championship, previously called the Football League First Division, was founded in 2004. Like the England League One, 24 teams currently contest the Championship. The two best teams at the end of each season of the Coca-Cola Championship get promoted to the Premier League, along with the winner of the Championship Play-Offs. However, the three lowest teams of the Championship are replaced by the two best teams of the League One, along with the winner of that division.
