The 2023 Myanmar National League Two, is the 11th season of the MNL-2, the second division league for association football clubs since its founding in 2012.
It has been decided to hold the MNL2 league with a total of ten teams. In the league includes the MFF's youth team called Junior Lions and nine other clubs.[1]
Summary
After the end of 2023 MNL-2, Thitsar Arman became a first time ever champion in their history. And MNL-2 becomes the New champion. 2022 MNL Champion University finished at 2nd place. Thitsar Arman and University will promote to 2024 Myanmar National League. If University does not pass the MNL criteria, Port FC is promoted to 2024 Myanmar National League. Mawyawadi FC and Golden Grit relegated to Myanmar Amateur League.
Clubs
After the MNL 2 meeting, it was decided that 10 teams will participate in the league. For this to happen, there were multiple clubs created this year. From the 2022 season, there are three clubs. Defending champions University were unable to be promoted so they continue playing in MNL-2, and Mawyawadi who failed to gain promotion to the first tier. Junior Lions is a team consisting of players under the age of 18, and as a club based in MFF, they are also unable to be promoted.
One club returned after an absence from the 2022 season. Silver Stars made their return to the MNL-2, after not appearing in the 2022 MNL-2. Newly founded clubs were Glory Goal, Shwe Pyi Thar, Port, Golden Grit and Thitsar Arman FC. Rakhapura United made its return as well but as the affiliate club of MNL team Rakhine United.
