Geographical distribution of 2007-08 Serie C2 teams. Serie C2/A teams are depicted with red dots, Serie C2/B with green, and Serie C2/C with yellow ones.

The league was composed of 54 teams divided into three divisions of 18 teams each, whose teams will be divided geographically.

Teams finishing first in the regular season, plus one team winning the playoff round from each division were promoted to Serie C1; teams finishing last in the regular season, plus two relegation playoff losers from each division were relegated to Serie D. In all, six teams were promoted to Serie C1, and nine teams were relegated to Serie D.

Events

The line-up was announced on July 19, 2007.[1] The only team excluded because of financial troubles was Tempio, Serie D - Girone B winners in 2006–07. On August 3, 2007 it was announced that the vacancy would be filled by Serie D - Girone B runners-up U.S. Calcio Caravaggese (formerly USO Calcio Caravaggio).[2]

The league features six teams relegated from Serie C1 in 2006–07 (Pizzighettone, Ivrea, Pavia, Teramo, San Marino and Giulianova) and nine promoted from Serie D (Canavese, Mezzocorona, Rodengo Saiano, Esperia Viareggio, Valle del Giovenco, Scafatese, Noicattaro, Neapolis and Calcio Caravaggese).
