Northern Tasmanian Football League
|
The Northern Tasmanian Football League is an Australian rules football competition in northern Tasmania.
History
The Northern Tasmanian Football League (NTFL) was founded in 1987 to replace the former Northern Tasmanian Football Association (NTFA) - no relation to the current NTFA - and the North Western Football Union (NWFU) which suffered as a result of the defection of clubs joining the new TFL Statewide League in 1986.
In 1986, North Launceston and East Launceston joined the TFL Statewide League, with a third NTFA club, City-South merging with East Launceston midway through that season.
The NWFU lost Devonport to the Statewide League at the conclusion of the 1986 season.
