2016–17 England Korfball League

The 2016–17 England Korfball League season is played with 8 teams. Trojans KC are the defending champions. As there will be an extension of the league from 8 to 10 teams for the 2017–18 season, the last placed team will not be automatically relegated, instead they will go into the Promotion play-offs to fight for another season in the league.[1]
