Participating teams
Because there is no promotion or relegation in the league, the same 15 teams who competed in the league last season competed in the league this season.
Regular season
The 15 clubs were split into two groups; one with eight clubs and another with seven clubs.
Results
All teams played twice against the teams within their own group and once against the teams from the other group. This meant that the clubs in the eight-club group played 21 matches each while the clubs in the seven-club group played 20 matches each during the regular season.
