2025–26 Liga 4 South Papua (also known as the 2026 South Papua Governor's Cup for sponsorship reasons) is the second season of the fourth-tier football competition in Indonesia organized by the Provincial Association (Asprov) of PSSI South Papua. The competition serves as the regional qualifying round to determine the representative for the national phase of the 2025–26 Liga 4.

Background

As a newly established province, South Papua continues to finalize its organizational readiness. Following the Ordinary Congress in December 2025, Asprov PSSI South Papua focused on restructuring the organization and synchronizing the PSSI statutes with national regulations.[1] Preparation for the competition began early with the opening of club registrations through the SIAP PSSI system in late 2025.[2]

To prepare for the tournament, participating clubs—including defending champions Persimer Merauke and Persibodi Boven Digoel—conducted open trials to scout local talent across their respective regencies.[3][4]
