Latvian Higher League 2009 ((ラトビア語:Virslīga)) was the 18th season of top-tier football in Latvia. It began on 14 March 2009 with the first round of games and ended on 8 November 2009 with the 36th round of matches. Ventspils were the defending champions. Due to numerous pre-season team changes, such as club mergers and withdrawals, the format of the league was changed. Since there are only 9 clubs that participate in 2009 Virslīga, every team plays 4 times against every other team, what will make every team playing 32 games. Contrary to the previous season, there isn't Championship and Relegation pool.〔(Paziņo LMT Virslīgas 2009.gada sezonas kalendāru ) 〕 ==Teams== Olimps Rīga were relegated after finishing the relegation round in last place. They were replaced by First League champions FK Daugava Riga. Blāzma won the promotion/relegation play-off against Tranzīts Ventspils with 6–1 on aggregate. However, after several mergers and withdrawals Tranzīts were also awarded a place in Virslīga, as the runners-up of First League. FK Rīga withdrew due to unpaid debts.〔(Futbola kluba «Rīga» desmit gadu ) 〕 They eventually merged with Olimps Rīga and created a new club called ''Olimps/RFS''. The new club plays in Virslīga, what saved Olimps Rīga from relegation.〔("Olimps" apvienojas ar RFS ) 〕 On 12 January 2009 Vindava withdrew from Virslīga due to financial reasons.〔("Vindava" atsakās no spēlēšanas Virslīgā ) 〕 ''FK Jūrmala'' merged with ''JFC Kauguri/Multibanka'', which is also a merger of JFC Kauguri Jūrmala and FK Multibanka Rīga, to a new club named FK Jūrmala-VV. The new club carried over the players and other personnel from FK Jūrmala. Daugava Daugavpils and Dinaburg also merged and remained under the Dinaburg FC name. It is not yet certain which club's staff will operate the new club. Dinaburg also took Daugava's UEFA Europa League 2009–10 spot.〔("Dinaburg" un "Daugava" apvienojas ) 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2009 Latvian Higher League」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
