The season started on 15 July 2016,^[8] running to 4 June 2017.^[9] After the 20th matchday the league was on winter break between 20 December 2016 and 9 February 2017.

Each team played a total of 30 matches, half at home and half away.

So, finally each team played a total of 37 matches. This is the fourth season to take place since the new playoff/playout rule has been introduced.

The defending champions were Legia Warsaw, who won their 11th Polish title the previous season.
