The 2018–19 Gibraltar Intermediate League is the first season of under-23 football in Gibraltar, after reforms to reserve team football in June 2018. The league is expected to be contested by ten clubs, and began on 21 August 2018 despite initially being set to begin on 13 August.
Format The Gibraltar Intermediate League was established by the Gibraltar Football Association in June 2018 as a merger of the pre-existing Reserves Division and Under 18 Division, in order to aid player development on the territory. Competing clubs are required to register a reserve squad of 18 players, of which 13 must be Gibraltarian.
Teams
The following teams were registered by the Gibraltar Football Association to compete. However, Gibraltar United withdrew from the league on the eve of their first game, citing a lack of players. St Joseph's resigned in December 2018 ahead of their Gibraltar Intermediate Cup tie against Gibraltar Phoenix.
