The '''1966–67 Iraq Central FA Premier League''' was the 19th season of the [[Iraq Central FA League]] (the top division of football in [[Baghdad]] and its neighbouring cities from 1948 to 1973), and seven teams competed in the tournament. On 3 June 1967, the penultimate game of the first half of the season was played between [[Amanat Baghdad|Maslahat Naqil Al-Rukab]] and [[Al-Jaish FC (Iraq)|Al-Firqa Al-Thalitha]], and the latter side were then set to play the last remaining match from the first half of the season against [[Al-Shorta SC|Aliyat Al-Shorta]] later that week.<ref>{{cite web|title=Third edge PTS in fine game|url=https://gpa.eastview.com/crl/mena/newspapers/bagh19670605-01.1.10|publisher=Baghdad News|date=5 June 1967}}</ref> But after the outbreak of the [[Six-Day War]] on 5 June, the league was postponed for over a month.

Iraq Central FA Premier League
Season1966–67
ChampionsN/A (season cancelled)

The 1966–67 Iraq Central FA Premier League was the 19th season of the Iraq Central FA Premier League (the top division of football in Baghdad and its neighbouring cities from 1948 to 1973). After the outbreak of the Six-Day War on 5 June 1967, the league was postponed for over a month, with one match remaining from the first half of the season and the second half of the season having not yet started.[1]

In July, the Iraq Central Football Association (IFA) decided to cancel all scheduled matches from the second half of the season,[2] and planned to complete the first half of the season by holding its last game between Aliyat Al-Shorta and Al-Firqa Al-Thalitha on 21 August at Al-Shaab Stadium.[3] However, it is unclear if this match ended up taking place,[4] and the league season was reportedly considered as cancelled by the IFA.[5]

Shidrak Yousif was named as best player while Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya's Hisham Atta and Maslahat Naqil Al-Rukab's Adel Ibrahim were joint-top scorers at the time of cancellation with five goals each.[6]
