For the first time the competition will be organised by the Pro League, the league reduced from eleven to ten teams after Eendracht Aalst opted not to apply for a license to compete this season.

The six teams that are ranked highest after the regular season will compete in a Play-Off consisting of ten match days, points will be halved echoing the system used in the men's competition. The winner will be crowned the national champion and will qualify for the UEFA Women's Champions League.

The bottom four teams will compete in a play-off also having their points halved, however, no team will be relegated from the Super League this season providing that they all apply for a licence for next season as the League is set to expand to twelve teams in the 2024-25 season. [3]
