The 1941β42 Palestine League was the ninth season of league football in the British Mandate for Palestine. The defending champions were Hapoel Tel Aviv.
The Palestine League was divided into three regional divisions (Haifa, Jerusalem, Southern) with playoffs at the end of the season, [1] with the league winners and the Southern League runners-up qualifying for a championship playoff. [2]
The Haifa League was cancelled on 5 March 1942 [3] and a cup competition was played instead. Homenetmen Jerusalem won the Jerusalem League, and Maccabi Rishon LeZion won the Southern League. This meant that the two league winners, along with runner-up Maccabi Tel Aviv qualified to the championship playoff.
