Newington were last season's Premier Intermediate League champions following a title race that went down to the final weeks, the North Belfast club finishing above Bangor and Armagh City.
There’s two new clubs in the division ahead of the kick-off on August 20 with Queen’s University returning to the league after relegation and Lisburn-based Ballymacash.
As part of a 27-game campaign, all 12 clubs will play each other twice (home and away) before splitting after 22 games into two sections for a further five games.
Elsewhere in the first game week, the Students from Queen’s will begin their charge to bounce back to the Championship against PSNI at the Dub.
