The 1958 Soviet Football Championship, Class B (Russian: Чемпионат СССР по футболу 1958 (класс «Б»)) was the ninth season of the Soviet Class B football competitions since their establishment in 1950. It was also the eighteenth season of the Soviet second tier professional football competitions.

Overview

It involved participation of 94 "teams of masters" split in six groups which were composed by regional principle to some extent. Compared with the previous season, the number of participants was increased by 30(!) teams and there were added two additional groups. The teams were distributed somewhat equally among the six groups with five groups containing 16 teams and one "Far East" group - 14.

Out of all 94 teams only one was set to receive promotion.

Six group winners qualified for the single round-robin final tournament which was won by SKVO Rostov-na-Donu. Note that SKVO Rostov-na-Donu won the league as a debutant. The winner of the final tournament gained promotion to the next season Class A competitions.

Renamed/relocated

There were 21 teams that changed their name before the season. Two more clubs changed their home cities. In 1957 several sports societies Burevestnik, Krasnoye Znamia and Pischevik were reorganized or disbanded and in their place was formed Trud sports society. Not all former "Pischevik" teams adopted the name of Trud because they were transferred to other sports societies. Also, some sports society of agricultural trade unions were named in languages of their home republics.
