League System edit

The 2018–19 Egyptian Handball League system happens in two phases. The first phase divides the 18 teams into two groups, with the first four teams from each group advancing to the next round. The next round, a stage of one group, wins the most points. If both teams have the same number of points, a play-off occurs. Knowing that the teams heads of the two groups go up with four points, the seconds are two points, the third is a point and the fourth is a point.
