The league contracted from 16 to 15 clubs for this season.

Teams

Don Bosco, Eclair, Violette and Dynamite finished in 13th through 16th place in the overall table at the end of last season and were relegated to the Haitian second level leagues. They were replaced by the two Haitian second level group winners: North Group winner Triomphe and South Group winner Valencia.

During the offseason, FICA took legal action against the Haitian Football Federation (FHF) for a spot in the league. In a ruling handed down on 28 April 2011, only days before the season began, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) ruled in favor of FICA, meaning they would be included in this season's competition.[1]
