Season structure

The season will have the same structure to the previous Greater Brisbane League season with five open age divisions, with first division (Major A) and second division (Major B) split into a 'Major League' and 'Pacific League' which has eight teams playing in Major League and seven in Pacific League.

The leagues will be determined by a round robin competition every Friday and Sunday from 26 September 2010 to 14 November 2010 with the top eight teams that meet Major League Criteria qualifying for the Major League and the remaining seven, play in the Pacific League. The top two teams from both Major A and Major B at the end of the qualifying rounds will contest the Commissioners Shield.

The Major A premiership is currently held by the Western Districts Bulldogs in Major League and Pine Rivers Rapids in the Pacific League.

Preliminary rounds

The 2010–11 season saw the Narangba Demons and Pine Rivers Rapids elect to not field teams in either Major or Pacific League. These two clubs along with the Mt Gravatt Eagles and Southern Stars will only field teams in the South Queensland Baseball League which saw the Logan Sharks reintroduce a team after not entering a team for the previous season. The preliminary rounds will be used to determine the top six seeded teams for Major League and bottom seven for Pacific League for the rest of the season. All teams play each other once including one bye round over the space of seven weeks with teams playing Friday night and Sunday afternoon. Mid-week games were played to cover for abandoned or suspended games. Redlands Rays appealed their final standing on the grounds of washouts successfully, and the Major League competition was expanded to seven teams rather than the original six planned.
