The Cardiff Combination Football League is a football league covering the city of Cardiff and surrounding areas in South Wales. The leagues are at the seventh, eighth and ninth levels of the Welsh football league system.
The most successful club in the league's history is Caerau (Ely), with ten top division titles.
On 10 November 2016 it became the first local league to broadcast a live draw, doing so for its Milsom Harries Cup.[2] In 2018 a match between Aberystwyth Exiles and Cathays Conservatives (won 4–1 by Cathays) was attended by John Hartson and Robbie Savage. They were there as part of the filming for the BT Sport Pub Cup, where the Exiles were set to represent the Four Elms pub in Roath.[3]
