The 2016 National Camogie League consists of three divisions: 11 in Division 1, 12 in Division 2 and 5 in Division 3; 1 and 2 are divided into two groups. Each team plays every other team in its group once. 3 points are awarded for a win and 1 for a draw.

The top two teams in each group in Division 2 contest the Division 2 semi-finals.
The top four teams in Division 3 contest the Division 3 semi-finals.
