2009–10 SAFA Second Division
The 2009–10 SAFA Second Division season, also known as Vodacom League due to a sponsoring deal at the time, took place in South Africa between August and April. The season was scheduled to begin and end one month earlier than normal, due to the country's 2010 FIFA World Cup preparation. The league is the third tier of South African football, and is divided geographically into five divisions in the Coastal Stream and four divisions in the Inland Stream.

Playoff stage
The nine provincial winners were drawn into a round robin stage. The five Coastal stream teams and four Inland stream teams were put respectively into Group A and Group B. All the playoff matches were played from 6–12 April, at two big stadiums in the Mpumalanga region: Themba Senamela Stadium in Mhluzi, Middelburg and Ackerville Stadium in eMalahleni. The respective winners of the two groups, would both gain promotion to the National First Division, beside meeting each other in a last show-off final, where only the champion honour was at stake.[1][2]
