Contents
It will be divided into two phases: the regular season, and the playoff phase.
The league will also be composed of 36 teams divided into two divisions of 18 teams each, whose teams will be divided geographically. Teams will play only other teams in their own division, once at home and once away for a total of 34 matches each.
Teams finishing first in the regular season, plus one team winning the playoff round from each division will be promoted to Serie B; teams finishing last in the regular season, plus two relegation playoff losers from each division will be relegated to Lega Pro Seconda Divisione. In all, four teams will be promoted to Serie B, and six teams will be relegated to Lega Pro Seconda Divisione.
Start of season
The league was to feature four teams relegated from Serie B in 2009-10. Triestina, Mantova, Gallipoli and Salernitana. But on July 17, 2010 Mantova and Gallipoli was excluded by the Federal Council and relegated to Serie D and Promozione respectively. Because of the exclusion of Ancona from Serie B Triestina was admitted back to fill the vacancy on August 4, 2010.
It is to feature six teams promoted from 2009–10 Lega Pro Seconda Divisione; the three division winners - F.C. Südtirol, Lucchese and Juve Stabia, and the three playoff winners - Spezia, Gubbio and Cisco Roma (later renamed Atletico Roma).
The remaining 26 teams were to come from the teams that played in Lega Pro Prima Divisione 2009-10 that were neither promoted nor relegated. Of those, Arezzo (4th in Girone A), Perugia (11th in Girone A), Rimini (4th in Girone B) and Real Marcianise (12th in Girone B) were also listed by the Covisoc organization as not having met the financial requirements to be admitted. On July 17, 2010 these teams were officially excluded from the league along with Figline (7th in Girone A) by Federal Council's decision.
On August 4, 2010, the eight vacancies created were filled by the following teams, all of which were destined to play in Lega Pro Seconda Divisione for the 2010-11 season before the call-up:
