The champions and the runners-up ensured their participation in the 1996–97 UEFA Cup. The teams had to declare their interest to participate in the 1996 UEFA Intertoto Cup before the end of the championship.

Enosis Neon Paralimni FC
Enosis Neon Paralimni Football Club ( el, Ένωση Νέων Παραλιμνίου, ''Enosi Neon Paralimniou'', "Youth Union of Paralimni"), commonly referred to as ENP, is a Cypriot football team from Paralimni.

The only reason why founders decided to adopt the year 1936 as the new club's birth year instead of the year 1944 has purely to do with Heracles official papers. On those, it was clear that whenever the club's members decided to cease its operations, all of its assets (movable and immovable property) would go straight to the Church.
