The season started on August 15, 2014, advanced by four months and was scheduled to finish in May 2015.[1] The league was postponed after the 17th round with the last action of the season being on 17 January, a 1:0 victory for Al-Ittihad Ibb over Fahman Abyan. It was later cancelled due to the unsafe conditions in the country with the 2014–15 Yemeni coup d'état and subsequent Civil War.[2]
