The 2022–23 CESAFI season is the 23rd season of the Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation, Inc., the preeminent inter-scholastic sports competition in Cebu.

This season marks the return of the physical events of the CESAFI, which because of the COVID-19 pandemic had held its two previous seasons virtually. The season will mark the first appearance of University of the Philippines Cebu (UP Cebu) as a regular member. Aside from UP Cebu, the Sisters of Mary–Boystown and City of Bogo Science and Arts Academy will both compete in the high school division in select events as guest members. Southwestern University will take a leave of absence for this season, citing a lack of budget for its sports teams.
