Battleford was a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan, Canada. It was one of the 25 ridings created when the province came into existence in 1905. It was replaced before the 1917 general election, by the riding of Cut Knife and by combining the eastern tip of the riding with the North Battleford provincial district to create The Battlefords.
