GD Amarantes was the defending team of the title but was no participant in the competition. A total of 7 clubs (4 in Group A, 3 in Group B) participated in the competition, one from each island league, no club came from the islands of Brava and Maio as the competition was cancelled for the season. The season had a shorter 2-3 matches in Group A and 2 matches in Group B. There were only 10 matches, the total number of goals scored was only a low 19.

It was the last season they used the group system with the final matches, they would use the common ranking system with the club with the most points winning the title the following season. Not until the 2003 season they would use the group system with 4 matches and with playoffs though the semis would be added.

It marked the final appearance of GD Palmeira of Santa Maria at the national championship competition, their next national appearance for that club was the 2012 Cape Verdean Cup.
