In the 2016 season, a total of eight teams competed in two separate groups (four each in DBL North and DBL South). Each of these groups holds a round-robin tournament in which two teams meet twice, with each team enjoying home rights once. After each game, the winning team receives two points and the defeated team receives zero. In the event of a tie, each team receives one point. The opponent's points are counted as minus points. After the end of the round-robin tournament, a ranking list is determined, in which the number of points scored is decisive. In the event of a tie, the direct comparison decides.
After the round-robin tournaments, the two best teams compete in a play-off round for the German championship.
The play-offs for the championship are played crosswise. That is, the first in the group plays against the second in the other group in a semi-final . Accordingly, the second in the group plays against the first of the other group. The first in the group enjoy home rights. The winning teams compete against each other in the final. The winners of the two semi-finals compete against each other in the Ladiesbowl XXV.
