# 1995–96 YUBA League

The 1995–96 Sportstar YUBA League (Serbian Cyrillic: ЈУБА лига 1995/96.) was the 4th season of the YUBA League, the top-tier professional basketball league in Yugoslavia (later renamed to Serbia and Montenegro).

## Competition system

As in previous season, Regular season was made of 32 teams divided into 4 groups with 8 teams each. Twelve best teams by efficiency (percentage of game winning) from the Regular season (regardless of the position in the group) formed Superleague, from which first 8 teams advanced to Championship playoffs. All remaining teams from regular season continued competition in Consolation groups (A and B), from which only winners and runner-ups of each league would compete in the qualifications for the next 1996-97 YUBA League.
