The 2009–10 season was the 107th in the history of the Southern League.
Hednesford Town 6 – 0 Rugby Town, 5 April 2010
A total of 22 teams contest the division, including 17 sides from last season, four clubs promoted from Division Ones plus one club who had been transferred from the Northern Premier League:
Farnborough won the Southern League Premier and were promoted to Conference South, while play-off winners Nuneaton Town achieved the second promotion in two seasons after club reorganization to return in Conference.
Clevedon Town and Rugby Town were the only clubs relegated this season, while Merthyr Tydfil were liquidated and reborn under the name Merthyr Town three divisions below Southern League Premier Division. Thus, two clubs, Tiverton Town and Hemel Hempstead Town were reprieved from relegation.
