The 2023–24 Gibraltar Intermediate League is the sixth season of under-23 football in Gibraltar, after reforms to reserve team football in June 2018.[1] The league will be contested by 11 teams - ten under-23 sides of the Gibraltar Football League clubs plus Hound Dogs.
Manchester 62 are the reigning champions. The league kicks off on 19 September 2023.
Format[edit]
The Gibraltar Intermediate League was established by the Gibraltar Football Association in June 2018 as a merger of the pre-existing Reserves Division and Under 18 Division, in order to aid player development on the territory. Competing clubs are required to register a reserve squad of 18 players, of which 13 must be Gibraltarian.[2]
Teams[edit]
Mons Calpe returned after a one-year absence, while Glacis United withdrew. Due to the lack of resources necessary to compete in the Gibraltar Football League, Hound Dogs were granted special permission by the Gibraltar FA to participate as a senior side in the Intermediate League.
Note: Flags indicate national team as has been defined under FIFA eligibility rules. Players may hold more than one non-FIFA nationality.
