The Inter City Midweek Football League was one of several Scottish supplementary football leagues run in the 1912–13 season.

Because Wednesday was the only day that shopworkers in Scotland had off, it was decided to form a Midweek League for their benefit. Six top Scottish Football League clubs entered teams, but the competition was abandoned in November 1912 after only four rounds because of disappointing attendances.
