The 2012–13 Ugandan Super League was the 46th season of the official Ugandan football championship, the top-level football league of Uganda.

Overview

For an eight-month period in the 2012–13 season, Uganda had two parallel leagues structures, the Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) Super League, run by the national Federation, and the Uganda Super League which was managed by the Uganda Super League Limited (USLL).[1]

Uganda's cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister Patrick Amama Mbabazi on 8 May 2013 declared that only one league would exist for the 2013/14 season.[2]
