2016 New Caledonia Super Ligue


The New Caledonia Super Ligue 2016 was the 43rd season of top-tier Caledonian football. It started on 3 March and ended on 3 December 2016. Thirteen teams took part in the championship. The two teams with the highest number of points were chosen to represent New Caledonia in the group stage of the 2018 OFC Champions League.

Standings

Relegation play-off

Out of the thirteen teams on the top tier of 2016, eleven are based on Grande Terre, the main island of New Caledonia, while two are from other islands. At the end of the season, the worst placed team among the ones which are not based on the main island is either relegated directly or must face a play off against the winner of the Championnat des Îles 2016. Because Ne Drehu finished 4th and Horizon Patho finished 5th, the latter played against E.S. Wacaelé.

Second leg

Horizon Patho won 2–1 on aggregate and both clubs therefore remain in their respective tiers for the 2017 season.
