The Cambodian Premier League (CPL), known for sponsorship reasons as the Metfone CPL, is the top level of professional football in Cambodia. Organized by the Football Federation of Cambodia, the league has undergone significant professionalization in recent years, expanding its reach and improving standards. Typically featuring a select number of clubs, the league follows a double round-robin format, with the champion qualifying for the AFC Cup. Based in Phnom Penh, the league has seen growing investment, attracting foreign players and coaches to raise the level of competition. Clubs like Phnom Penh Crown and Visakha have been dominant forces. The CPL is central to the development of the Cambodian national team, the Koupreys. With increasing television coverage and fan engagement, the league is on an upward trajectory, aiming to become a more prominent competition in Southeast Asian football.
