Liga IV Timiș is the county football division of Liga IV for clubs based in Timiș County, Romania. The competition is ranked as the fourth tier of the Romanian football league system and is organized by AJF Timiș – Asociația Județeană de Fotbal (lit. 'County Football Association').
It is contested by a variable number of teams, depending on the number of teams relegated from Liga III, the number of teams promoted from Liga V Timiș, and the teams that withdraw or enter the competition. The winner may or may not be promoted to Liga III, depending on the result of a promotion play-off contested against the winner of a neighboring county series.
History
In 1968, following the new administrative and territorial reorganization of the country,[1] each county established its own football championship, integrating teams from the former regional championships, as well as those that had previously competed in town and rayon level competitions. The freshly formed Timiș County Championship was placed under the authority of the newly created Consiliul Județean pentru Educație Fizică și Sport (lit. 'County Council for Physical Education and Sports') in Timiș County.
Since then, the structure and organization of Liga IV Timiș, as with many other county championships, have undergone numerous changes. Between 1968 and 1992, the main county competition was known as the County Championship. From 1992 to 1997, it was renamed Divizia C – County Phase, followed by Divizia D starting in 1997, and since 2006 it has been known as Liga IV.
