III Liga (Trzecia Liga, Polish pronunciation: [ˈtʂɛt͡ɕa ˈlʲiɡa]) is a Polish football league that sits at the 4th tier of the Polish football league system. Until the end of the 2007–08 season III Liga referred to a league at the 3rd tier,[1] although this changed with the formation of the Ekstraklasa as the top level league in Poland. It's below II liga and above IV liga.
