The 1988–89 Iraqi Pan-National Clubs League (First Division) was the 15th season of the competition since its foundation in 1974 and the first that was played in a group stage format rather than a round-robin format.
Al-Rasheed won the title by defeating Al-Talaba on penalties in the final, to become the first team to win three Premier League titles in a row.
During the regional stage, if a match ended in a draw, it would go to extra time and then penalties if necessary.
A team would earn three points if they won a game by two goals or more after normal time, two points if they won a game by one goal or in extra time, and one point if they won a penalty shootout.
