The 2012 Palau Soccer League was the eighth season of association football competition in Palau,[1] and the first that has been split into two stages: the Spring League and the Fall League. The Spring League was won by Team Bangladesh.[2] The Spring League consisted of five rounds of matches in a round robin group stage, from which the top four qualified for semi-finals, and a play-off final. According to the fixture list, the Fall League was played in the same format, only this time each team played the others twice. This is assumed to be the first season of football since 2010 as the 2011 winner is unknown.
The spring league consisted of one group of five teams all playing each other once. The top four then proceeded to one-legged semi-finals to determine the two teams to contest the championship.
The Fall League is played in the same manner as the Spring League, except in this iteration, the group stage will be played on both a home and away basis.[3] Biib Strykers are not competing and have been replaced by New Stars FC.
