Rangers AFC: Southern League 1968-1997

Introduction

In the late 1960s, three regional leagues were established in New Zealand. The Northern League (top half of the North Island), Central League (bottom half of the North Island, plus Nelson/Marlborough) and the Southern League (rest of the South Island). For two years they were the top leagues in the country. In 1970 a National League was introduced - Rangers competed in that in 1980 and 1981. In 1993, the National League was replaced by a regional (North/Central/Southern) "Superclub" competition, with the top clubs from each region qualifying for a National round. This lasted 3 years and the regional league structure returned for 1996 and 1997. Following that, in 1998 a Canterbury Premier League was played for two years before the Federation 6 (Mainland) Premier League was established in 2000. The Southern League sometimes had more than one division, and Rangers' reserve side sometimes played in the lower divisions, while the first team played in the top division. The Southern League was on occasions split into north and south sections, with playoffs between each section to determine overall champions.

Note: all results have Rangers' score first.
