The 2023–24 Maltese Futsal League, also known as Enemed Futsal League[1] is the 13th season of the Maltese Futsal League, the top Maltese league for futsal clubs, since its establishment in 2011. It is also the 25th season of the futsal championship in Malta, since the beginning of organized futsal in the country in 1999.

Format

The 2023–24 Maltese Futsal League was contested in two stages. In the first phase, the league consisted of eleven participants, each playing one another once in a single round-robin format.[2]

Following this stage, the top five clubs advanced to the Premier League, where they again played a single round-robin (four matches each). The top four teams then entered the play-offs to determine the champions of the 2023–24 season.

First stage

Eleven teams played a total of 10 games to determine the second stage.[3] The top-five teams qualified for the 2023–24 Enemed Premier Futsal League, while the rest of the teams qualified for the 2023–24 Enemed Challenger League.[4]
