The Lega Nazionale Professionisti B (Italian for National Professionals League B), commonly known as LNPB or Lega B[1] (B League), is the governing body that runs the second tier of professional football competitions in Italy, the Serie B. It was previously known as Lega Nazionale Professionisti Serie B or just Lega Serie B.
It was founded on 7 July 2010,[2] following a split between Serie A and Serie B clubs, which led to the dissolution of the Lega Calcio and creation of two new leagues, the Lega Serie A and Lega Serie B respectively.[3] Since April 2011, Lega Serie B has joined the European Professional Football Leagues association.[4]
