With Polokwane City and Cape Town Spurs earning promotion to the DSTV Premiership, TTM relegated to the ABC Motsepe League, Black Leopards and Milford FC purchasing the statuses of All Stars FC and Uthongathi FC respectively plus a name change for Venda Football Academy who will now be known as Venda Football Club, it's been a busy period for some clubs who participated in the MFC last season. Added to that mix are the two teams relegated from the DSTV Premiership, Maritzburg United and Marumo Gallants as well as the two new arrivals for the ABC Motsepe League.

The 2022/23 football domestic season has come to its end in South Africa with champions crowned, places filled in all the tiers, new faces revealed and for some clubs a re-assessment of a season not quite going to plan.

While Mamelodi Sundowns were crowned Champions of the DSTV Premiership, Marumo Gallants (despite contesting the semi-finals of the CAF Confederation Cup) were automatically relegated to the Motsepe Foundation Championship (NFD).

The ABC Motsepe League Playoffs get underway in KZN from Tuesday 6 June 2023. Nine teams from the 9 provincial regions of SAFA will do battle in three groups after which the group winners along with the best second placed team will progress to the semi-finals. The winners of the semi-finals will not only contest the final, but will both be promoted to the Motsepe Foundation Championship and professional football.

The conclusion of the PSL season was a bitter/sweet one for the Limpopo Province, with celebration of promotion to the DSTV premiership for Polokwane City and relegation to the Moptsepe Foundation Championship for Marumo Gallants.

Results from round 28 of the Motsepe Foundation Championship confirmed the relegation of both Black Leopards and TTM FC to the ABC Motsepe League and amateur football next season.
