Guyana Football Federation (GFF) Elite League (known for sponsorship reasons as the Stag Elite League^[1]) is the top football division in Guyana. It replaced the GFF National Super League (known as the GFF Premier League for its final season) as Guyana's top division after that league went on hiatus for the 2014–15 season. Its inaugural season consisted of 8 of the 11 FIFA licensed teams from Guyana.^[2]^[3] The league expanded to 10 teams for its second season, but four teams pulled out before the season began.
