The 2001 season of the Bhutanese A-Division was the seventh recorded season of top-flight football in Bhutan.[1] The league was won by Druk Star, their first title and the first time a Bhutanese team other than Druk Pol had won in the last six years.[1] The league was preceded by a qualifying tournament known as the Thimpu League. Qualifiers from this league joined other teams in a round robin group stage to determine the four teams who would proceed to the knock out stage.[2]
The 2001 Thimpu League, which started on 15 July, served as a qualifying tournament for the 2001 Bhutan A-Division. 9 teams took part, 5 from Thimpu[2] and 4 from Phuentsholing.[2] It is not known for certain how many teams qualified, but of the four known participants, three qualified as a result of their position.[2]

Druk Stars did not qualify for the A-Division.[2]
The A-division commenced on 12 August. Although Druk Star had not qualified via the Thimpu League earlier in the year, they were given a place following the withdrawal of Phuentsholing and Chhuka.[2] The league consisted of two groups of three teams playing in a round robin format. The top two teams from each group then qualified for the semi-final knockout stages.
