Football league season

National Professional Soccer League
Season	1980
Champions	Highlands Park
Relegated	Pretoria Callies, Welkom Real Hearts, Bloemfontein Celtic
← 1979 1981 →

The 1980 National Professional Soccer League was the third season of the multi-racial South African National Professional Soccer League (NPSL). The league was a merger of the previous NPSL, which due to the country's apartheid policies were for black teams only, and the National Football League, for white teams only. It was won by Highlands Park.

The third professional league, the Federation Professional League, for Indian and coloured South Africans, continued to function independently.
