The 2017–18 Championnat National season is the 20th season since its establishment. The fixtures were announced on 25 July 2017.[1]

Team changes[edit]

  1. ^ Paris FC were promoted to fill the vacant spot created by the administrative relegation of SC Bastia from Ligue 1 to Championnat National.[2] On 10 August, the FFF announced that SC Bastia would be denied entry to Championnat National due to financial issues. The club will therefore take the place of its reserve team in Championnat National 3 and Championnat National will operate with 17 clubs.[3]

  2. ^ On 28 November 2017, the FFF announced that Dunkerque would be deducted three points due to breaking the financial rules of the league.[5] Dunkerque appealed, but the decision was upheld.[6]
