Current: 2024–25 Super League Greece

The Super League Greece 1 (Greek: Σούπερ Λιγκ Ελλάδας 1), or Stoiximan Super League for sponsorship reasons, is the highest professional association football league in Greece. The league was formed on 16 July 2006 and replaced Alpha Ethniki at the top of the Greek football league system. The members of the cooperative are the Football Limited Companies (P.A.E.) that have the right to participate in the Super League 1 championship.[2] The president of Super League 1 is Vangelis Marinakis, who has been re-elected for the third time.[3]

It consists of 14 teams and runs from August to May, with teams playing 26 games each followed by 6-game Championship play-offs to decide the champions.

As of May 2024, Super League Greece is ranked 15th[4][5] in the UEFA ranking of leagues, based on performances in European competitions over the last five years.

Since the foundation of the first official Panhellenic Championship in 1927,[6] only six clubs have won the title. With 47 conquests, Olympiacos has the most titles in the history of the competition.

The current champions are PAOK.
