Referees
A total of 55 ABA officials set to work on the 2021–22 season in ABA 1 and ABA 2:

Regular season
The regular season commenced on 25 September 2021.

Results by round
The table lists the results of teams in each round.

Playoffs
On 13 September 2021, the ABA League JTD decided that six highest-placed clubs from the Regular season will qualify for the Playoffs.

Relegation Playoffs
The 13th placed team of the First Division season and the runners-up of the Second Division season should play in the Qualifiers for a spot in the next First Division season. That team should have been Split.

However, because of the rule that no more than 5 teams from the same country could participate in ABA league, and since Serbian team Zlatibor is the champion of the ABA League Second Division, relegation playoffs will be played between them and the lowest ranked Serbian team in the ABA League First Division (Borac Čačak).
