History
From 1935 until 1948, the second-level Italian league was known as the Serie B. It was then known as the Promozione from 1948 until 1965. The second-level league again became known as the Serie B from 1965 to 1988.
Between 1988 and 1993 and from 1995-1996, the Serie B1 and Serie B2 functioned jointly as the second-level leagues. In the years 1997, 1999, 2000, and 2003, the Serie A2 and Serie B served as the second tier leagues. The Serie B served as the sole second-level competition in 1994, 1998, 2001, 2002, and 2004.
The Serie A2 became the lone second-level league for the 2004-05 season. The league changed its name to the Seconda Divisione prior to the 2013-14 season. After nearly all the Seconda Divisione teams joined the Serie A for 2014-15, the second-tier competition again became known as the Serie B.
