The 1. Lig will feature 20 teams from 14 cities. We want the 1. Lig to be a strong organization that carries the passion and excitement of football to all corners of our country, attracting the interest of football fans as much as the Super Lig, setting an example with its competition, and bringing cities together in a common football culture.

"The 1. Lig is not just an organization that determines teams promoted to the Super Lig; it is a valuable platform where young players showcase themselves, complete their development, and shape the future of football," Otyakmaz stated. He emphasized the importance of unity, collaboration with clubs, and fair play for a stronger future for Turkish football.
