The 2021–22 Segunda División Pro, named Reto Iberdrola for sponsorship reasons, was the 21st season of the second highest league tier of women's football in Spain, and the third and last season under a new two-group format.

This meant there would be a great deal of movement from the Segunda Pro among its 32 participants at the end of the season: *Two teams moving up to the top division as group winners *Eight teams remaining at the second level based on their group positi ...

Dux Logroño
