A new structure has been confirmed for the GKL next year with only the top 16 sides from this year's league being invited to compete next year in the rebranded Grappa Kings Serie A. Those falling below 16th place will be offered a place in the Grappa Kings Serie B. In the event that top 16 finishers decline to take a place in the Serie A their spot will be offered to the 17th place team and so on until the league is filled. The move will allow promotion and relegation between the two divisions in years to come.
