Zimbabwe's Premier Soccer League has halted relegation for the current campaign, paving the way for an expanded 20-team structure aligned with international standards. The decision protects struggling sides, including Dynamos, Highlanders, and Yadah, while reinstating Kwekwe United, whose demotion had been finalized months earlier.
Four regional winners have secured advancement to create a temporary 22-club competition before contraction through six relegations. League administrators described the restructuring as necessary for competitive balance, though clubs will face 41 fixtures during the transition period compared with 34 matches under the existing format.
