The FFB Top League was put in place by the FFB due to the PLB being subject to restrictions mandated by the Supreme Court of Belize.[1] The formation of the league will fulfil the requirement made by FIFA to restart football in Belize, as well as protecting the participating berth for the FFB for the 2022 CONCACAF League.[2]
The FFB expected to only administer the 2021–22 tournament, providing that the PLB legal matters will be resolved during this time.[3]
