The 1932 SAAFL season was the 18th season of the South Australian Amateur Football League (SAAFL).

The season commenced on 30 April and concluded on 10 September.

The SAAFL had 645 players registered for 26 teams from 19 clubs. Mount Barker, after two seasons, left the league for the Hills Football Association,[1] It's place in A2 was taken by Colonel Light Gardens.

The A2 Grand Finalists from the previous season, Alberton Church United and Goodwood, displaced St. Augustine and Henley & Grange in A1, so both divisions remained at 8 teams each. Three new clubs were Kings Old Collegians (played at Kings College Oval), Otiose (former in Y.M.C.A. Association, played at corner of South and West Terrace), and Semaphore Central Juniors (separate from Semaphore Central, although sharing Largs Reserve, previous played in the Port Adelaide District Association. In 1933, would revert to its original name Exeter).[2] These new clubs were admitted to the Junior League, along with Alberton Church United B and Prince Alfred Old Collegians B.[3][4] Medals[5]
