The 2017–18 Southern Combination Football League season is the 92nd in the history of the competition, which lies at levels 9 and 10 of the English football league system.
The constitution was announced on 26 May 2017.
The Premier Division consists of 20 clubs, the same as last season, after Wick and Hailsham Town were relegated to Division One, and Shoreham were promoted to Isthmian League Division One South.
Three clubs joined the division:
With the suspension of ground grading Grade E for this season and the creation of a new league at Steps 3 and 4, the champions of all Step 5 leagues will be compulsorily promoted to Step 4. Of the fourteen runners-up, the twelve clubs with the best PPG (points per game ratio) will also be compulsorily promoted.
Any teams at Step 5 without ground grading Grade F will be relegated to Step 6. All step 5 leagues are to be fixed at 20 clubs for 2018–19, so further relegations or reprieves are likely.
