Seconda Divisione 1924–25 was the lower championship of the Lega Nord.

Different from the higher championship, it was structured into four local groups.[1]

Regulations

It had four groups of ten clubs, with eighteen match days; however, the finals possessed four clubs and six match days.

Two of the participating teams were promoted to the First Division and the other two to test-matches.
