The 2025–26 SAFA Second Division (known as the ABC Motsepe League for sponsorship reasons)[1] will be the 28th season of the SAFA Second Division, the third tier for South African association football clubs, since its establishment in 1998. Due to the size of South Africa, the competition was split into nine divisions, one for each region. After the league stage of the regional competition is completed, the nine winning teams of each regional division will enter the playoffs.[2]
The competition is administered by the South African Football Association.
Due the expulsion of Premiership teams Royal AM, three teams were promoted from the previous season rather than the usual two. The start of the season is again being affected by legal challenges following the decision to conclude the previous season’s playoffs with only seven teams, after the exclusion of the Eastern Cape and Limpopo representatives.[3]
