D: Promotion de District or de Premier Division de District or Premier Division de District(Division 9 i.e. first District Division). [or even the lower District Division]. NB: CFA2 teams entered third round, CFA teams fourth round and National teams fifth round. 7th Round It's the first national round with geographical groups. For the preliminary round and the two first rounds, it's a toss by districts or by proximity if the number of teams is odd. After, it's a regional toss. Now, when there are two divisions between two teams, normally the lower club plays at home but sometimes the ground isn't homologated. The D2 teams enter this round as the Overseas teams that won their Coupe de France régionale. For these last ones, there is a separate toss to know which ones will play at home and which teams from D2, National or CFA that want to go there will play.
