The Slovenian Republic Football League (Slovene: Slovenska republiška nogometna liga) was the highest football league in Slovenia within the Yugoslav football system.

During the time of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia it was known as the Ljubljana Subassociation League (Slovene: Prvenstvo Ljubljanske nogometne podzveze) and was one of the qualifying tournaments for the Yugoslav Championship.[1] During the time of Yugoslavia, it was a third level league for most of the time, but became a fourth level in 1988. Before that, the winner was promoted to the Yugoslav Second League, and after that it was promoted to the Yugoslav Inter-Republic League. After Slovenia's independence in 1991, the league was transformed into the Slovenian PrvaLiga.[2]
