The '''1966–67 Iraqi Central Premier League''' was the 19th season of the [[Iraqi Central League]] (the top division of football in central [[Iraq]] (i.e. the capital city of [[Baghdad]]) from 1948 to 1974). Seven teams competed in the tournament. The league was abandoned after the [[Six-Day War]] in June 1967, before all of the teams had played half of their games, so no champions were declared.<ref>[http://www.rsssf.com/tablesi/iraqhist.html Iraq 1962/63-1972/73]</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=http://alshorta.webs.com/overview |title=Al-Shorta Overview |access-date=2017-05-19 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170413215912/http://alshorta.webs.com/overview |archive-date=2017-04-13 |dead-url=yes |df= }}</ref>

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]
