Season summary

Extension Gunners, then known as LCS Gunners due to sponsorship by Lobatse Cash Stores, topped the log to win their first title [1] ahead of much fancied teams including defending champion BDF XI. Gunners would also win the FA Cup to mark their league victory as more than just a fluke.

Notes:
  1. Due to the Super League running parallel to the CAF calendar, LCS Gunners & TAFIC would only be eligible to enter the 1993 editions of the respective CAF competitions they qualified for.
  2. LCS Gunners, the holders of the domestic cup, had already qualified for the African Cup of Champions Clubs, and were thus replaced in the Cup Winners Cup by the FA Cup runners-up TAFIC.
