The Manchester Football League, formed in 1893, is a football league for clubs in or close to Manchester, United Kingdom. The 2005-06 champions were Prestwich Heys.

The league consists of five divisions, (including the Manchester Football League Premier Division). The Premier Division and Division One are exclusively for first teams, with Divisions Two to Four consisting of reserve and lower sides of the clubs in the top two divisions. Reserve teams of clubs whose first teams play in a different league are not permitted to join.

The top division of the league has a promotion/relegation arrangement with the North West Counties Football League, placing it at level 11 of the English football league system. However, the NWCFL's ground requirements are considerably higher than those of the Manchester League, so meeting them usually requires expensive improvements, and consequently few teams take up the chance of promotion. Ashton Athletic took the step up from Division One of the Manchester League in 2006.
