Wessex Football League
Season 2005–06
Champions Winchester City

The 2005–06 Wessex Football League was the 20th season of the Wessex Football League. The league champions for the second time in their history were Winchester City, who were promoted to the Southern League along with runners-up Thatcham Town and third-placed Andover. The extra promotions were because of the pyramid reorganisations that took place in 2006.

There was a full programme of promotion and relegation between the three Wessex League divisions.[1] Promotion from the lower divisions was largely based on ground grading, rather than league finishing positions. This was protested by Division Two champions Locks Heath and Division Three champions Paulsgrove, but the league stuck with their decision to promote lower-placed clubs with better facilities.[2]

For sponsorship reasons, the league was known as the Sydenhams Wessex League.[3]
