Current: 2025–26 Singapore Premier League

The Singapore Premier League, commonly abbreviated as the SPL, officially known as the AIA Singapore Premier League for sponsorship reasons, is a men's professional football league sanctioned by the Football Association of Singapore (FAS), which represents the sport's highest level in the Singapore football league system.

The competition was founded as the S. League on 14 April 1996, after the FAS announced its intention to promote and expand the growing local football community by having a top-level domestic league. As of 2025, the league comprises eight clubs, consisting of four rounds in which each team plays every other team once. Seasons run from late August to May, with teams playing 28 matches each, totalling 112 matches in the season.

Successful SPL clubs qualify for Asian continental club competitions, including the AFC Champions League Two. SPL currently does not practice promotion and relegation. Since the league's inception in 1996, 7 clubs have been crowned champions. Warriors FC have been the most successful club with 9 titles, followed by Albirex Niigata Singapore (6), Tampines Rovers (5), Lion City Sailors (4), Geylang International (2), DPMM (2) and Étoile (1). The current champions are Lion City Sailors, having won their fourth league title in the 2024–25 season.
