Overview[edit]

In the fourth season, the school teams, which are Thanwit Al-Shoike (English: Al-Shuwaikh High School), Al-Kalia Al-Saneia (English: The Industrial College) and Al-Shorta (English: The Police), were excluded from participating in the league and witnessed the participation of three new clubs, namely Al-Salmiya, Al-Fahaheel and Al-Shabab. Kuwait SC managed to end Al-Arabi's monopoly on the league championship to achieve its first title in its history after topping the league table without any defeat with eighteen points, scoring 44 goals and conceding 9 goals.
