The 2016–17 Championnat de France Amateur will be the 19th season of the fourth tier in the French football league system in its current format. The competition will be contested by 64 clubs split geographically across 4 groups of 16 teams each. The teams include amateur clubs (although a few are semi-professional) and the reserve teams of professional clubs.
On July 15, the FFF ratified the constitution of the competition, and published the groups as follows:
On 9 August, the FFF confirmed the decision by Évian TG not to participate in the CFA following the club's recent receivership. Because the decision comes after 15 July, there will be no replacement and Group C will instead operate with 15 clubs.
Outcomes below are provisional and subject to ratification by the FFF.
Cholet, Entente SSG, Grenoble and Rodez are promoted to National. Although Rennes (res) finished at the top of Group A, reserve sides are not eligibile for promotion.
Grenoble are Champions of 2016–17 Championnat de France Amateur, due to having the best record of the four group winning sides against the teams finishing in 2nd to 6th in their respective groups.
Plabennec, Nantes (res), Châteaubriant, Wasquehal, Dieppe, Calais RUFC, Auxerre (res), Mulhouse, Paulhan-Pézenas, Le Pontet and Montpellier (res) are provisionally relegated to National 3, subject to reprieves.
