The 2005–06 Lebanese Second Division was the 72nd season of the Second Division league which featured 12 Clubs. 3 of these teams were eligible for promotion to the top league of Lebanese football, the Lebanese Premier League while 1 of the 12 teams had to face relegation to the Lebanese Third Division for the 2006-07 Season.
From the 2004-05 Premier League, 3 teams were relegated to the Second Division.[1] However, 2 teams were brought up to the Premier League from the 2004-05 Second Division, these 2 teams being Salam Zgharta and Racing Beirut.[1] This was due to the Lebanese Football Federation announcing it will reduce the number of teams in the Premier League from 11 to 10 for the 2005-06 Season leading to an increase in the number of teams in the Second Division.[1]
At the end of the season, Shabab Al-Sahel earned the title after finishing on 56 Points, 5 clear of the nearest club, Al-Hikma who finished 2nd on 51 Points with 16 victories, 3 draws and just 3 losses for the Season. The last team in this season to earn promotio was the Al-Ahli Sidon team who finished 3rd and just 1 point behind Al-Hikma.
