The season takes place within a calendar year, it starts in spring and ends in autumn. Since the 2013 season , the twelve participating clubs have been contesting a double round with 22 match days. Then the six best-placed teams play a championship round, within which everyone plays twice against each other. The points of the preliminary round and the championship round are added together. The first in the final table will be Belarusian champions and take part in qualifying for the UEFA Champions League . The second and third reach the UEFA Europa League . The teams in places 7 to 12 of the preliminary round play a relegation round in the same way as the championship round. The bottom of the table descends in the second-rate Perschaja Liha , the penultimate denies a relegation against the second of the Perschaja Liha. In the event of a tie, the number of wins is decisive; if it is the same, the direct comparison from all season games of the teams in question against each other and then the goal difference decides.

Since Partizan Minsk did not get a license for the 2012 season as a result of the withdrawal of their main sponsor , the league started exceptionally with only 11 teams. To compensate, there was no relegated team this season, but only one promoted from the second division, so that the 2013 season was held regularly with 12 teams.

For the 2015 season , the league was increased from twelve to 14 teams, followed by an increase to 16 teams in 2016.

history

The first season of the Wyschejschaja Liha took place between April and June 1992. At the start were clubs that had previously played on a supraregional level in the league system of the Soviet Union as well as those from the Belarusian league within the Soviet Union. The 16 teams played a simple round each against each other. This was followed by three seasons with a double round that began in autumn and ended in spring. In autumn 1995 another championship was held in a single round, before the game year was changed to the calendar year from 1996. From 1996 to 2009 the league was held annually in a double round, with the number of participating clubs varying between 14 and 17. For the 2010 season, the league was reduced to twelve clubs that played a triple round. Three years later, the mode was changed again. Until 2014, the season consisted of two phases, a double round followed by a championship and relegation round. For the 2015 season, the number of participants was increased to 14 and then to 16 in 2016, who play a double round with home and away legs.

In the first few years the league was dominated by Dinamo Minsk , the only Belarusian club that played in the top league of the Soviet Union until 1991. Dinamo won the first five championships and was able to win two more championship titles and six runners-up championships in the following years. In addition, the club's second team took part under the names Belarus Minsk and Dinamo-93 Minsk from 1992 to 1997 in league operations and achieved a runner-up and three third places. From 1996 to 2005 followed a phase with annually changing masters. In the 2002 season there was a playoff for the championship between the equal points teams BATE Baryssau and Njoman Hrodna , which BATE won 1-0 after extra time. For BATE, which was promoted to the Wyschejschaja Liha in 1997 , this was the second championship title after 1999. From 2006 BATE Baryssau became the clearly dominant club of the league, which was champion ten times in a row by 2015 and in 2008 was the first Belarusian club ever for qualified for the group stage of the Champions League . This succeeded four more times in 2011 , 2012 , 2014 and 2016 .
