The Premier League is the top football league in Barbados. It was created in 1947 and is headed by the Barbados Football Association. Ten teams participate in this league. It is known as the Digicel Premier League for sponsorship reasons.

Despite being a league competition in CONCACAF none of the Barbadian teams have played in CFU Club Championship or CONCACAF Champions' Cup (the last appearance was in 2000).

The 9th and 10th-placed teams are relegated to Barbados Division One. Many teams play their home games at the 5,000-capacity Barbados National Stadium in Bridgetown.
