Rules for classification:
1st points; 2nd goal difference; 3rd goals scored
1Atlético Balboa were relegated due to failure to pay members of their organization and other problems which caused them to not play in their final two league matches of the season.[1] Once Municipal have claimed that this should spare them from relegation. On 13 June 2011, the league voted for Once Municipal to remain in the competition for next season.[2]
