The 2024–25 Jordanian Premier Basketball League, also known as the CFI Premier Basketball League for sponsorship reasons, will be the 70th season of the Jordanian Premier Basketball League (JPL), the top-tier competition for professional men's teams in Jordan. The season will begin on 12 December 2024.
Al-Ahli are the defending champions, having won the previous 2022–23 season.
Format
During the first round of the competition, 7 teams compete in a double round robin format, with each team playing home-and-away games against every other team.
The teams that finish in 5th, 6th, and 7th place at the conclusion of the first round will play at the second round, with a single round-robin series to determine their final rankings. There, the 6th and 7th placed teams play a single match, and the winner will meet the 5th placed team. The winner of that match then advances to the third stage.
The top four teams from the first round and the single team from the second round gets to advance in a second group stage, referred to as the third round, where they again compete in a double round-robin format of home and away matches.
The top four teams from the third round progress to the fourth round, which will consist of another double round-robin, aiming to arrange the positions of the remaining teams. The two highest-ranking teams qualify for the finals, while the third and fourth placed teams play for a third-placed match.
The finals are played as a best-of-five series, with the first team to win three games crowned the champion.
Teams
There were initial plans of 8 teams participating in the league by December 12. However, 7 teams will end up participating in the competition.
Amman United, Al-Jalil and Shabab Bushra were added to the competition, while Al-Wehdat, Kafr Yuba, Al-Mokawloon, Gaza Hashem and other basketball clubs were not interested in participating in the competition.
Al Riyadi Aramex had originally planned on participating, but will instead not participate in the competition.
The league ultimately increased from 6 to 7 teams from the previous season.
