The Macron Southern Combination Football League is a football league broadly covering the counties of East Sussex, West Sussex and southeastern Surrey, England.

Formed in 1920 as the Sussex County Football League, the league now has six divisions – three for first teams and three for reserve sides. The first team divisions – Premier, One and Two, sit at Steps 5, 6 and 7 of the English football league system, below the lower divisions of the Isthmian League and the Southern League. The reserve divisions are not part of the league system. The league changed its name to the Southern Combination Football League for the start of the 2015–16 season, and at the same time renamed the divisions Premier Division, Division One and Division Two. Also, for the 2015–16 season the league added two U21s divisions, one in the East, and one in the West, these two leagues consisting of 7 teams each.

The Reserve leagues were discontinued, and the U21 divisions replaced by Under 23's, at the end of the 2017–18 season.

Sponsorship

Macron Sportswear signed a 4-year deal beginning 2014/15 season resulting in the official name being changed to "The Macron Sussex County League" and then to current "The Macron Southern Combination Football League".
