The Leagues starts on 12 April and finishes on 30 August, with the competition being a double round robin.

At the end of season, the highest ranked nominated first team will be nominated to play in a Mainland Football Federation Playoff, two-leg home and away series, against the highest ranked first team from Canterbury Men's Premiership. This is to get the team that will compete against the highest ranked nominated team from Southern Premiership League in the Southern League Playoff, two-leg home and away series. The winner of Southern League Playoff Series will be promoted to Southern League, assuming they will have the correct club licensing before the season starts.

Seven teams are competing in the league – six teams from the previous season plus one new entry. The new entry team is Nelson Suburbs U18. They replace Golden Bay and Motueka.
