2015–16 V AFG

The 2015–16 V Football Group season was the 66th season of the Bulgarian V Group. The group comprised the third level of the Bulgarian football pyramid and was divided into four geographic regions: North-West, North-East, South-East, and South-West. The 2015–16 season was notable for the participation of CSKA Sofia and Lokomotiv Sofia in the South-Western region, as the two teams were unable to obtain a license for the A PFG due to unpaid debts, which led to their administrative relegation.
