The 2014 South Australian National Football League season (officially the SANFL IGA League) was the 134th season of the South Australian National Football League (SANFL) Australian rules football competition. The size of the league increased from 9 clubs to 10 clubs, after the South Australian Football Commission granted the Australian Football League's Adelaide Football Club a licence to field a reserves team in the competition. Adelaide Oval replaced Football Park as headquarters of the SANFL, resulting in the renovated venue hosting one SANFL minor round match (Anzac Day) and all six SANFL finals matches.

The official season motto was announced by the SANFL as: This is Football.
Norwood were the premiers for the 2014 season, after they defeated Port Adelaide by 4 points in the Grand Final in front of a crowd of 38,644, the largest such crowd since 1999. It was the third consecutive premiership for Norwood and their 30th overall.
Sturt, South Adelaide and Woodville-West Torrens also made the top (final) five teams and participated in the finals series. North Adelaide, Central District, Adelaide, West Adelaide and Glenelg all missed the top five, with Glenelg finishing bottom to record its 17th wooden spoon.
