The 2012 Cape Verdean Football Championships season was the 33rd of the competition of the first-tier football in Cape Verde. Its started on 5 May and finished on 7 July, slightly earlier than last year. The tournament was organized by the Federação Caboverdiana de Futebol (Cape Verdean Football Federation, FCF).[1] Sporting Praia won the ninth title, it would be the club's most recent title win. This time, Sporting Praia did not participate in the 2013 CAF Champions League. No club also participated in the 2013 CAF Confederation Cup.

CS Mindelense was the defending team of the title. A total of 12 clubs participated in the competition, one from each island league and one who won the last season's title. It would be the first time that more than three clubs shared the same club name starting with Académica numbering five out of twelve. Half of Group B clubs would bear the first club name but only half would bear the name in the knockout stage. In the top semifinal bracket, those same clubs again appeared and would be the first time.

The biggest win was Sporting Praia who won 6-0 over Juventude from Sal.
