Below the Campeonato Nacional de Seniores (Portuguese third level) the competitions are organised at a district level (known in Portuguese as Distritais) with each District Association organising its competitions according to geographical and other factors. AF Braga runs a league competition with three divisions, at the fourth, fifth and sixth levels of the Portuguese football league system, a cup competition known as Taça AF Braga, and a Supercup.

In more general terms the AF Braga currently organises District Championships for football and Futsal for men and women for all age groups including Senior, Junior, Youth, Beginners, Infants and Schools.
