Superleague Hoenn (Sangunese: 超盟豐縁, translit.: Chome Hoen?), commonly known as the Superleague (超盟, Chome?), is the top-tier soccer league in Hoenn, run by the RHFA. The league is contested by 16 teams and operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the National Championship. Teams from all four of Hoenn's domains are eligible for promotion, and three of them (Hoenn, Iyo, and the Ryūkyūs) are currently represented.
The Superleague is an anonymous partnership with all 16 teams as silent partners and the RHFA as manager; through this venture, the league's profits are equally distributed between the RHFA and the member teams. Most games are played on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, though weeknight contests are not themselves uncommon.
The competition formed on 14 Mutsuki 742 following the decision of sixteen teams then in the First Division to break away from the National Championship.
