The English Football League Championship, also known as the EFL Championship or simply the Championship, is the second tier of the English football league system. It is the highest division of the English Football League (EFL) and the third-highest overall in the English football pyramid, below the Premier League and the EFL League One.

The Championship is contested by 24 teams, who play each other twice during the season, for a total of 46 matches each. The top two teams are automatically promoted to the Premier League, while the third, fourth, fifth and sixth-placed teams enter the play-offs to determine the third and final promotion place.

The Championship was established in its current format in 1992, following the restructuring of the English football league system. Prior to this, the second tier of English football was known as the Football League Second Division. The Championship is one of the most watched football leagues in the world, with an average attendance of over 18,000 per match.

Some of the most famous clubs in English football have played in the Championship, including Arsenal, Manchester City, and Leeds United. The Championship is a highly competitive league, with teams often changing places at the top of the table. The 2022-23 season saw Burnley and Sheffield United promoted to the Premier League, while Swansea City and Blackpool were relegated to League One.
