One team (the last one) at the end of the season is relegated to the second division, whilst one team from the second division is promoted.
The play-off semi-finals and the championship winner will be decided after three wins. The championship winner, along with the winners of the Cypriot Cup, will qualify to compete in the next season's FIBA's European-wide continental competitions.
