It also allows a maximum of three foreign players to participate.^[4]

Teams

On 5 September, Al-Watan and Al-Majd won promotion from the Western Group.^[5] This is Al Watan Club's first ever participation in the Premier League.^[6] On 6 September, Al-Borouq and Khaleej Sirte secured promotion to the league.^[7]
