The Western Premiership is an amateur status league run by Central Football, for association football clubs located in the central mid-west regions of the North Island of New Zealand, and composed of clubs from the Manawatū–Whanganui and Taranaki regions as a New Zealand tier four competition, that pairs with the Eastern Premiership and sits below Central League 2.
The Western Premiership (Western League), has existed sporadically in different forms between 1957 and 2016, and was reformed in 2025 after the collapse of the Central Federation League, replacing both the Horizons Premiership (2017) and the Taranaki Premiership (1986) within the reconfiguration of the leagues by New Zealand Football and Central Football.
