The 2024–25 Thai League 3 Northern Region is part of the 2024–25 Thai League 3 Regional Stage, consisting of 11 clubs located across the northern region of Thailand, including some areas in the upper parts of the central and western regions. The season will commence on 14 September 2024,[1] with clubs competing in a round-robin format featuring home-and-away matches. The Regional Stage will conclude on TBD, at which point the top two clubs will advance to the National Championship Stage, while the bottom-placed club will face relegation to the Thailand Semi-pro League for the following season. This stage showcases the spirit of football in Thailand's highlands, where clubs represent the cultural and historical richness of the northern provinces.

Seasonal Changes

Relegation from Thai League 2

Chiangmai was relegated to Thai League 3 due to failing to meet club licensing standards. The club will now compete in the Northern Region for the 2024–25 season, bringing higher-level competition.[2]

Promotion from Thailand Semi-pro League

Chattrakan City earned promotion from the Thailand Semi-pro League and joined the Northern Region, adding fresh competition for this season.[3]

Club licensing failures

Kongkrailas United and Rongseemaechaithanachotiwat Phayao, despite meeting competitive criteria, were relegated to the Thailand Semi-pro League after failing to comply with licensing requirements.[4][5] This has allowed Nakhon Sawan See Khwae City, the last-place club in the 2023–24 season, to remain in Thai League 3.[6]

Club name and logo changes

  • Phitsanulok Unity revamped its identity, changing its logo from a field rat to a fighting cock, symbolizing King Naresuan the Great's legendary fighting cock.[7]
  • Uttaradit Saksiam rebranded as TPF Uttaradit, adopting a completely new logo while keeping the image of Phraya Phichai, a historical local hero.[8]
