The Cornwall Combination League is a football competition based in the Western half of Cornwall, England in the United Kingdom, formed in 1959.

The league has a single division, which sits at level 12 of the English football league system. The Champion club may apply for promotion to the South West Peninsula League, which is a level 11 league. The bottom clubs may get relegated to one of the level 13 leagues of the English football League System - normally the Falmouth & Helston League or the Mining League.

No Cornwall Combination clubs are currently eligible for national competitions; the only time a club from the league has played in the FA Cup was when Falmouth Town played a single match in 1983-84, the only season Falmouth's first team played in the Combination.

The current league sponsors are drinks retailers Jolly's.

In the 2007-08 season, Truro City Reserves took the title and League Cup going through the season unbeaten, whilst Penryn Athletic Reserves won the Supplementary League Cup. Truro City Reserves from the Cornwall Combination have been accepted as into the South West Peninsula League in Division One West.

At the 2008 AGM Portreath were accepted into the league for the 2008=09 season to replace Truro City Reserves.
