The NB III group line-ups were finalised on Tuesday. Our second team will once again compete in the South-East Group, where there are four changes compared with last season.
Alongside the two relegated teams (Kecskemét II and Szolnok), Tiszakécske and Pénzügyőr also leave the group. The former were promoted to the second division, while the latter were assigned to the South-West Group. Dunaharaszti MTK comes from the South-West Group in place of Pénzügyőr, while Gábor Kovács's players will also face III. Kerületi TVE, moved over from the North-West Group. The two relegated teams are replaced by two promoted sides – both reserve teams of NB II clubs – as Szeged-Csanád Grosics Akadémia II and Békéscsaba II have joined the South-East Group, with the former returning to the third tier after one year.
