History

[edit]

Format

[edit]

The league was originally played in a single round-robin format, with all clubs placed in a single group. As more clubs joined the league, the format changed to an initial stage composed of various groups with clubs advancing to a final group for the title. In 1983 a play-off format was introduced, with all clubs playing a regular season in a single group and the best teams advancing to the play-offs.
