League system

edit

The 2020–21 Egyptian Handball League system was held in two phases, the first phase divided 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, and when the points are equal, a play-off is played between them.
