City of Lusaka failed in their bid to make a quick return to Super Division football after falling short of the finish-line in the promotion race on the last day of the season.
City, who were demoted from the Super Division last season, drew 0-0 away to Livingstone Pirates on Saturday to finish 4th on 59 points in their final Division 1 South final fixture.
The Woodlands club failed to reach the 61 points mark needed to stay in with the chances of promotion.
The honor of who joined Profund Warriors from Division 1 South in the 2012 Super Division season belongs to National Assembly FC who have ghosted from 4th in their last two matches to finish 2nd.
Assembly secured their promotion on Saturday when they won 1-0 away to Profund who were promoted with a game to spare last week with 62 points.
Assembly and Profund were last in the top flight in 2010 and 2000 seasons respectively.
They will be joined by Division 1 North clubs Indeni who return for the first time since 2001 and first timers Konkola Mine Police.
