The 2012–13 South African Premiership season (known as the ABSA Premiership for sponsorship reasons) was the seventeenth season of the Premiership since its establishment in 1996. The season began in the second week of August 2012.

Orlando Pirates were the defending champions, having won the previous 2011–12 season, but lost their title to Kaizer Chiefs. The season featured 14 teams from the 2011-12 season and two new teams promoted from the 2011–12 National First Division: Tuks FC and Chippa United who replacer relegated Santos and Jomo Cosmos.

Format changes

The 2012–13 season saw the introduction of the Q-innovation system. The league schedule was split into four fixture-blocks referred to as quarters, the first and third blocks had eight fixtures, the second and fourth blocks had seven fixtures.[5]

Prize money was given to the teams who finish top of the table after each block of fixtures.[5]

Teams

A total of 16 teams contested the league, including 14 sides from the 2011–12 season and two promoted from the 2011–12 National First Division.

Relegation for Jomo Cosmos to the 2012–13 National First Division was confirmed on 16 May 2012, as Jomo Cosmos maintained their reputation as a yo-yo club, suffering their third relegation from the Premiership in five seasons.[6] Santos had finished 15th and thus had to go through the 2011-12 PSL Playoff Tournament alongside Chippa United and Thanda Royal Zulu of the National First Division. Santos were unable to retain their place in the Premiership following a 4–3 defeat in the final game of the Playoff Tournament on 30 June 2012 and were subsequently relegated to the National First Division for the 2012-13 season.[7]

Tuks FC earned promotion to the Premiership as 2011-12 National First Division Champions.[8] Chippa United, who had finished second in the 2011-12 National First Division season, earned their place in the PSL after defeating Santos and Thanda Royal Zulu in the 3-team PSL promotion tournament. Both teams made their first appearances in the PSL.
