List of teams promoted from the Norwegian First Division and predecessors

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

A national second tier of Norwegian league football was established in 1963.[1][2] The league took over for Landsdelsserien, a league consisting of seven regional groups, as the second tier in the Norwegian football league system. The league was named 2. divisjon.[1] After the rebranding of the top tier ahead of the 1990 season, the second tier was rebranded as 1. divisjon in 1991.
