The Southern Football League is thrilled to announce its inaugural Premier League Fixture.  

Featuring six southern Tasmanian teams, with Brighton Football Club joining the returning TSL clubs, the 2025 season promises exciting match ups and a return to regional football for fans.  

SFL President David O’Byrne said it’s an exciting moment for football in the south.  

“After months of work to re-establish regional football, all footy fans can now see what the season will look like and where and when they can watch their clubs in action. 

“The passion for local footy will be demonstrated from the first bounce in the first game of the first round in 2025.” 

David said the new structure means accessible footy for all fans.  

“For many years clubs such as Clarence, Glenorchy, Lauderdale, Kingborough and North Hobart have had to travel away long distances making it difficult for families and supporters to watch their favourite players and the big names of our game.  

“With the return of regional football, we can now see our teams play every week, there will be no excuses. 

“The regular season and finals, combined with state and representative games equates to a massive feast of football.” 

The Premier League season begins on April 5 with North Hobart hosting Kingborough, Glenorchy travelling to Brighton and Lauderdale at home against Clarence.  

The action doesn’t slow down over the Easter and Anzac Day long weekends with both boasting thrilling clashes.  

Two representative games are on the docket for the SFL Premier League, one against NWFL on the North-West Coast on the June long weekend, and the other against the NTFA in Hobart later in the month. 

Finals will begin in early September, with the Grand Final set for September 20.
