The 1941 SAAFL season was the 27th season of the South Australian Amateur Footballl League (SAAFL).

The season commenced on 26 April and concluded on 6 September.

The B teams of Payneham and University withdrew, as well as St. Peter's O.C. University B and St. Peter's O.C. both fielded their teams in the Students Association. While Alberton Church United, Combined Banks, King's O.C., Underdale and Y.M.C.A. went into recess until the war finished. Prince Alfred O.C. and Pulteney O.S. combined to form Collegians, and Goodwood were re-admitted.[1]
