VEF Rīga was the defending champion. Valmiera/ORDO won its first national championship this season.
Competition format
Eleven teams were expected to play in the league, as three of the teams (Jelgava, Saldus, and Valka/Valga) would confirm they meet the requirements yet.[1] Finally, only Jelgava and Valka/Valga joined the league.
As Valka/Valga was finally admitted in the league, the club played both Latvian and Estonian leagues. For the LBL, Valka/Valga would play, as VEF Rīga, two legs in the regular season.
