The Great Southern Football League is an Australian rules football league in Western Australia. It includes teams from towns in the Great Southern region.

The league began in 1991 after two leagues, the Southern Districts and the Central Great Southern Football League, merged. The Southern Districts clubs were Denmark, Royals, North Mt Barker, North Albany, Railways, and South Mt Barker; the Central Great Southern clubs were Australs, Kojonup, Tambellup, Wanderers, and Dumbleyung. In the first season, all but Denmark and Dumbleyung fielded teams.

Today there are six teams in the league, covering all levels of play.

Current derbies:
- Railways and Royals (cross-street rivals)
- Denmark vs Walpole and Mt Barker (small-town rivalry)
- North Albany and Royals (Red & Whites vs Blue & Whites; a long-standing SDNFL tradition)

Previous derbies:
- Australs and Wanderers (small-town rivalry)
- North Mt Barker Demons and South Mt Barker Hawks (small-town rivalry)
