The Malaysia Super League (Liga Super Malaysia) is a Malaysian professional league for association football state teams and clubs. It is at the top flight of the Malaysian League and it is managed by Malaysia Super League Sdn. Bhd., under supervision of the Football Association of Malaysia. The league is contested between 12 teams and operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the Malaysian Premier League.
The 12 clubs participating in this top flight league need to pass a set
of requirements and verification process, primarily related to
professionalism and infrastructure feasibility.
It was previously known as the Semi-Pro League from 1989 to 1993 and the Malaysian League (Liga-M) from 1993 to 2004. It is currently sponsored by Astro and therefore officially known as the Astro Malaysia Super League. The competition formed in 2004 following the decision by the Football Association of Malaysia
(FAM) to privatise the league, but it was not fully privatised. As a
result, MSL Sendirian Berhad (or MSL Proprietary Limited) was created to
oversee the marketing aspects of the league.
