The Southern Championship is an association football league in Southern Tasmania. It is jointly with the Northern Championship, the second highest level soccer competition in Tasmania. Nationally, it sits below the A-League and NPL Tasmania. It is controlled by the Football Federation Tasmania. Prior to the 2015 season it was known as the Southern Premier League and for sponsorship reasons as the Forestry Tasmania Southern Premier League Between 2001 and 2012 the Southern and Northern Premier Leagues were jointly the state's highest level of soccer competition (but still nationally below the NSL and A-League). During this period the two regional leagues determined a southern and northern champion, who then had a play-off for the state championship.

The Vic Tuting Medal was originally introduced in the early 1990s to the best and fairest player for Tasmania for the Tasmanian State League competition (equivalent of the current NPL competition). It is now presented to the best and fairest player of the Southern Championship at the end of the season due to a pause of the then State League.
