The new schedule is meant to align with the FIVB international calendar with the national league set to conclude in June, paving way for National team assignments. It was further agreed that the number of legs to be played indoor would increase to make for fifty percent of the league action.
At a technical meeting held in Nairobi on Saturday 6 November, the drawing of lots was done. In addition to the 13 that competed in the men's league last season, Prisons Central, Trail Blazers and Prisons Nyanza were the new additions to make it a 16-team league.
In the women's league Ashton make a comeback after missing out on last season's action to make it a 10-team league.
