Vitonen

This article is about a new seventh-tier Vitonen, changed for the 2024 season. For the current sixth-tier league, see Nelonen (football).

Vitonen or V divisioona is the seventh level in the Finnish football league system and comprises 228 teams. The V divisioona was introduced in 1973 and in the mid-1990s became known as the Vitonen (Number Five in English and Femman in Swedish). Until the end of 2023, Vitonen was the sixth-highest level in Finnish football league system, but after the formation of the new second-tier Ykkösliiga, Vitonen dropped down one level in pyramid to create a new seventh-tier Vitonen.

The competition

There are 228 clubs in the Vitonen, divided in 22 groups of 7 to 19 teams each representing a geographical area. During the course of a season (starting in April and ending in October) each club normally plays the others twice, once at their home ground and once at that of their opponents. The exception is the 19 team Keski-Suomi division where teams play each other once. The top team in each Vitonen group is normally promoted or qualifies for a promotion playoff to the Nelonen and the lowest placed teams may be relegated to the Kutonen.^[1]

Teams within the Vitonen are eligible to compete in the Suomen Cup and the Suomen Regions' Cup. The clubs are normally listed in an abbreviated form and their full names can be viewed by referring to the List of clubs.
