The 2012–13 season was the 110th in the history of the Southern League since its establishment in 1894. From the previous season onwards, the Southern League was known as The Evo-Stik League Southern, following a sponsorship deal with Evo-Stik.

Due to Step Three leagues increasing their number of teams from 22 to 24 from the 2013–14 season onwards, only two clubs were relegated from the Premier Division, and only one club was relegated from each of Division One Central and South & West this season.

The Premier Division consisted of 22 clubs, including 17 clubs from the previous season and five new clubs:

Hinckley United and Maidenhead United were originally relegated to this division from the Conference North/South, but were reprieved after the relegation of Darlington and the resignation of Kettering Town from the Conference National. Darlington were relegated to the Northern League, and Kettering applied to join the Southern League, allowing for a further reprieve for Hemel Hempstead Town.
