Format
The first round of the tournament will be held in a double round robin format in order to determine the positions of the teams, which will continue until 3 February 2026, to which there will be a break until 22 March 2026, in order for the Jordan national basketball team to prepare for its 2027 FIBA Basketball World Cup qualification matches.[4]
The second round would begin on 23 March 2026, with a three-game series between the following: first-placed versus eighth-placed, third-placed versus sixth-placed, then second-placed versus seventh-placed, and the fourth-placed versus fifth-placed team. The winner of the short series would advance to the third round.[4]
The third round begins on 2 April 2026, with another three-game series between the winners of the second-round.[4]
The fourth and final round, the finalists compete for the Premier League title in a five-game series, to be held between 17 April and 15 May 2026, with the winner being crowned by winning three of the five games. This round is preceded by a third-placed match, to which both teams will compete in a three-game series.[4]
