• Source: Santiago Island League

      • The Santiago Island League was a regional championship played in all of Santiago Island until 2002 when it was broken up into two present divisions, the North and the South zones, Cape Verde. It formed a part of the Santiago Regional Football Association (Associação Regional de Futebol de Santiago, ARFS) The winner of the championship had played in Cape Verdean football Championships of each season.
      The island league was one of the two oldest in Cape Verde. Until the 1960s, the league included clubs from the entire southern portion of Cape Verde and functioned as a regional league.
      From 2000 to 2002, it only contained a single match where as the champion of the South Zone competed with the North Zone and qualified into the National Championships. From 2002, it received separate qualification of the North and South Zones. Though, the island championship returned in 2009 for a season, it featured a single match with the winner of the North and South Zones competing for the single island championship (without qualification as the North and South Zones qualified separately), Académica da Praia won the championship.
      Up to 2002, no association used the abbreviative form of ARFS other than the island of Santiago, Sal Regional Football Association's Portuguese language abbreviative form was read as ARFSL.
