Primera División de Republica Dominicana was the former top division of the Federación Dominicana de Fútbol. Established in 1970, since 2002 this competition serves as second level to the Liga Mayor (see below). The 2005 edition also was played without clubs from the 2004–05 Liga Mayor - apart from the relegated teams Jarabacoa and Santo Domingo Savio (La Vega). In 2015 the league was replaced by Liga Dominicana de Fútbol, the first professional football league in Dominican Republic.
