2. deild karla (English: Men's Second Division) or D2 is the third-tier basketball competition among clubs in Iceland. It is organized by the Icelandic Basketball Federation (Icelandic: Körfuknattleikssamband Íslands – KKÍ). It consists of 11 teams and the season consists of a home-and-away schedule of 20 games. The top four non-reserve teams meet in a playoff for the victory in the league and promotion to 1. deild karla.[1]

History

The third-tier league was founded in 1973 as 3. deild karla[2] with 11 teams.[3] In 1978 it was rebranded as 2. deild karla. On 13 March 2020, the 2019–20 season was postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak in Iceland.[4] The day after, the Icelandic Basketball Federation canceled the rest of the season.[5]
