The 2012 Martyr's Memorial A-Division League season, also known as the Martyrs' Memorial Red Bull 'A' Division League Football Tournament 2012 for sponsorship reasons, was the 40th season of the Martyr's Memorial A-Division League since its establishment in 1954/55. A total of 16 teams are competing in the league.
