The 2024 Nationale 1 (N1) season was the 57th season of the Nationale 1 (NM1), the top-tier basketball league for men's teams in Senegal.

AS Douanes were the defending champions, but were eliminated in the semi-finals.[1] ASCVD won their first national championship, after defeating DUC in the final.[2][3] As champions, they qualified directly for the 2025 BAL season.[2]

Teams

[edit]

Guédiawaye Academy and USPA were promoted. UCAD and ASFA were relegated to the Division 2 following their results in the 2022 season.[4]

In January, it was announced that UCAD and Larry Diouf had merged and would keep playing in the NM1 under the name Larry Diouf.[5]
