The Greater Brisbane League 2010–11 season is part of the annual summer baseball competition of South East Queensland run by Baseball Queensland. It runs from September 2010 through to April, 2010.

The top two teams from both Major A and Major B at the end of the qualifying rounds will contest the Commissioners Shield.[citation needed]
