The season began on 12 March 2016 and concluded on 30 September 2016.
Kota Ranger and Kasuka entered as the two promoted teams from the Premier League.
[2] NFABD concluded the league after only one round, which meant that MS ABDB retained the title with seven wins out of nine.
Kota Ranger were promoted as champions of the country's second tier while Kasuka were also promoted, that's despite finishing outside the top two places in third but as Tabuan Muda B (Brunei U18s) finished second and are ineligible for promotion, it was awarded to Kasuka instead.
Kota Ranger and Kasuka replaced IKLS and Kilanas who were relegated in 2015.
