Team changes from 2010 season edit

The winners of last season (Gomel) were promoted to Belarusian Premier League. They were replaced by last-placed team of 2010 Belarusian Premier League table (Partizan Minsk).

The runners-up of last season (SKVICH Minsk) lost the promotion/relegation play-off to Torpedo Zhodino (11th-placed Premier League team) and both clubs stayed in their respective leagues.

Two teams that finished at the bottom of 2010 season table (Kommunalnik Slonim and Lida) relegated to the Second League. They were replaced by two best teams of 2010 Second League (Gorodeya and Slutsksakhar Slutsk).

Veras Nesvizh withdrew from the league and disbanded due to lack of financing. They were replaced by Klechesk Kletsk, who finished 3rd in last year's Second League.

Slutsksakhar Slutsk changed their name to FC Slutsk prior to the season.
