At the end of the regular season, each group will compete in the best-of-five semifinals to advance to the best-of-seven final.

The 43 clubs participating in the superior Double-A League in Puerto Rico approved a proposal by the National Baseball Federation (Federación Béisbol Aficionado Puerto Rico) to resume playing night games after four seasons.

The 16-game regular season will open on 27 February at the Nestor Morales Stadium, the home of the defending champions Grises in Humacao.

At the end of the regular season, each group will compete in the best-of-five semifinals to advance to the best-of-seven final. The winners of the eight groups will advance to a round-robin, and the top four will compete in best-of-seven semifinals and final.

The clubs approved the format of the seasons with a 36-4 majority during a meeting held at the Domingo Figueroa Convention Center in Vega Alta.

Starting the 2022 season, every club participating in the Double-A League will need to affiliate with the National Federation.

"We met for the first time since the 2021 season ended," commented Federation President José Quiles Rosas. "It was a very productive meeting, and it will serve as the base for the 2022 activity."
