On 23 June 2022, the league was renamed from Russian Football National League 2 to Russian Second League. The Russian Second League is geographically divided into 4 groups.

Standings

Second stage 
At the second stage, the teams of subgroup A retain the statistics from the first stage (points, wins, draws, losses, scored and missed goals). The teams of subgroup B retain the statistics from the first stage only in matches against teams from subgroup. Thus, before the second stage, new standings are formed in subgroup B. The teams in each subgroup will play in a single round-robin tournament. The winner of subgroup A becomes the winner of the group and can qualify to the First league. The two last teams of subgroup B (13th and 14th places in the group) eliminate from the Second League. Subgroup A
