from what I know, next season 16 as well, but from 2025/26 it'll be 14 teams

I'm not sure if they want to do so... even with 16 teams, some directors voted against shrinking amount of contenders another case is with Barkom Każany Lwów who is still within our league and some teams want them to come back to Ukrainian legaue
