The 2015 Norwegian First Division is Norway's second-tier football league. The league is contested by 16 teams, and the top two teams are promoted to Tippeligaen, while the teams placed from third to sixth place play a promotion-playoff against the 14th-placed team in Tippeligaen to win promotion. The bottom four teams are relegated to the Second Division.[1]
The first round of the season was played on 6 April 2015 and ended with the last round on 1 November 2015. The playoff-tournament was played between 7 and 21 November 2015.[2]
An agreement with Oslo's housing cooperative OBOS was signed on 15 January 2015, branding the league as OBOS-ligaen until 2021.[3]
