The Netherlands Football League Championship 1950/1951 was contested by 60 teams participating in five divisions. The national champion would be determined by a play-off featuring the winners of each division of the Netherlands. PSV Eindhoven won this year's championship by beating DWS, Willem II, Blauw-Wit Amsterdam and sc Heerenveen.

At the end of this season, the KNVB re-aligned the current system of Divisions into 4 new Divisions for 1951-52, to be called Eerste Klasse A-D.
