Basketball Championship of Bosnia and Herzegovina

The Basketball Championship of Bosnia and Herzegovina is the top–tier men's professional basketball league in Bosnia and Herzegovina for men and women, respectively. The league is operated by the Basketball Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Competition format

The league is composed of 12 teams, each playing against the other eleven two times, home and away. After this portion concludes, the top six clubs are joined by the country's representatives in the Adriatic League, and enter "League 6". The best of these four teams go to the playoffs, and in the final best-of-five series, the Bosnian champion is crowned.

The eight teams who do not make the playoffs go on to compete in the "relegation league," where a team's object becomes maintaining its standing and ability to play in the competition the following year.

The women's league has ten clubs and operates in a similar way, in the final "League Six". Meanwhile, the teams not in the playoff race play to avoid relegation.

Title holders

Prior to the 1997-1998 season, there were three separate leagues in Bosnia-Herzegovina, each divided by ethnicity. Between 1997-1999, there were two leagues in the country divided by the two official entities. Since the 1999-2000 season, there has been a unified league and a single champion each year.
