The Oman First Division League (known as the Omantel First Division League for sponsorship purposes) is the second-highest Association football league in Oman. Contested by 13 teams, the top 2 teams replace the bottom two in the Oman Professional League while the third-placed team has a play-off facing the third last-laced team in order to gain promotion.[1] It is one of four divisions the Oman Football Association (Oman's main football governing body) encompasses, and has 12 teams while the Second Division and Third Division have 13 and 20 clubs each.[2]

All First Division teams are entered in the Sultan Qaboos Cup draw.[3] Two First Division teams made the quarter-finals in 2016.[4]

The 2016-17 Oman First Division commenced on September 18.[5] Al-Mussanah SC, Sur SC and Salalah SC were relegated to the 2016-17 Oman First Division League.[6]

Leading in the 2016-17 Oman First Division (as of 20 February 2017) are newcomers Al-Salam SC, barely surpassing Al-Seeb Club on goal difference.[7]
