Last season’s final was washed out due to adverse weather conditions, resulting in Police SC and SSC being crowned joint champions. With that said, Police SC will compete in Group A while SSC will feature in Group B this season.

The first round of the competition is set to run until the 23rd of February, with the winners of each group advancing to the final, scheduled to be played from the 27th of February to the 2nd of March.
The bottom-placed teams in each group from last year’s edition were demoted to the lower divisions. As a result, Army SC, Galle CC, Sebastianites C & AC, and Air Force SC will not be competing this season.
