Teams[edit]

Empire FC and Pigotts Bullets FC were relegated to the Antigua and Barbuda First Division after finishing in ninth and tenth place at the end of last season.[1] They were replaced by the top two clubs from the First Division, Celtics FC and Virgin Atlantic Fort Road.[2][3]

Bassa finished in 8th place last season and had to participate in a three-team playoff with the 3rd and 4th place teams of the First Division, Villa Lions FC and Ottos Rangers FC, for one spot in this competition. Bassa finished first after this playoff, thus retaining their spot in the league.[4]
