At the autonomous community level (4th tier) of the Spanish football league system below the national competitions controlled by the Royal Spanish Football Federation, clubs from Melilla are placed along with those from eastern Andalusia in Group 9 of the Tercera División rather than in their own group, but at the 5th level, the city has its own league, the Primera Autonómica de Melilla.
