The Linafoot is the top division of the Fédération Congolaise de Football-Association, the governing body of football in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It was created in 1958.
In 2010 the competition was renamed the Vodacom Super League following the signing of a five-year sponsorship deal with communications company Vodacom.[1]
