The Northern Territory Football League (NTFL) is an Australian rules football competition, operating in Greater Darwin and the Northern Territory, formerly run by the Northern Territory Football League Incorporated and, since 3 September 2001, is a business name of the AFL Northern Territory Limited. The NTFL is currently branded "TIO NTFL" under sponsorship naming rights held by Allianz, which owns the Territory Insurance Office (TIO). It operates a semi-professional senior men's competition as well as competitions for women (NTFL Women's) and underagers (U12-U18 boys and girls) (NTFL Juniors).
It is one of few (and the highest level) Australian football competitions played during the Australian Summer with the season beginning in October and ending in March, because cricket cannot be played during the wet season, due to high levels of rain, resulting in the football and cricket seasons being swapped. It regularly attracts high-profile semi-professional players from interstate competitions due to its lack of salary cap and the timing of the season, which allows players to play extra matches during the off-season of other competitions. While most other Australian football competitions in Australia operate during the southern hemisphere winter, the NTFL chooses to play in the Northern Territory's 'wet season' from October to March, primarily due to hard playing surfaces and the need to play cricket during the 'dry season'.
History
The NTFL was founded in 1916 with The Wanderers Football Club and Waratah Football Club as founding members. Waratahs are the only club to have competed in every season of the NTFL. Darwin (Buffalos Football Club) was formed in 1917, Nightcliff in 1950, St Marys in 1952, Palmerston in 1972 (as North Darwin), Southern Districts in 1987 and the Tiwi Bombers in 2006 (with full entry in 2007).
The 1974-75 season was abandoned due to the devastation from Cyclone Tracy.
In the 1990s, it ran into financial problems, primarily due to the Northern Territory government luring the league to the new purpose-built stadium at Marrara Oval after its construction in 1991. The move pushed its operating costs up drastically despite contrary promises from the NT government. On 3 September 2001, the businesses of the formerly independent Northern Territory Football League Incorporated, which had overseen Australian Football in the NT since 1917, were taken-over by the Melbourne-based Australian Football League (AFL),[1] causing disquiet among supporters of Australian Football in the Northern Territory.[2] The Northern Territory Football League Incorporated was subsequently wound-up and de-registered on 19 September 2002,[3][4] ending its long history and local control of Australian Football. The name, Northern Territory Football League is now owned by the AFL and licenced to AFL NT as a registered business name.[5][6] NTFL board member Darryl Window orchestrated the takeover.[7]
During its history, it has exported successful players to other Australian football competitions and leagues, notable players have included Michael McLean, Maurice Rioli and Michael Long.
In 2006, it was announced that a team representing the Tiwi Islands, called the Super Tiwis would be added to the 2006/07 season for eight games against teams that would normally have the bye. They became a permanent part of the competition in the 07/08 season as the Tiwi Bombers, clad in Essendon Football Club style guernseys of black and red.
There was also a push for an NTFL representative club to compete in the Adelaide-based South Australian National Football League (SANFL). The first of a series of trial matches was held in 2006, with a long term view of admitting a Darwin side into the SANFL. A strong crowd at Marrara Oval witnessed SANFL club North Adelaide defeat a composite NTFL squad by 27 points, demonstrating that a Darwin team could be competitive. There was a push to make the event an annual match,[8] however, the NTFL decided on fielding a side in the AFL Queensland State League from 2009 (which became the Northern Conference of the North East Australian Football League in 2011) and the Northern Territory Football Club was formed.
In 2010 it was decided to merge the NTFL with the Top End Australian Football Association (TEAFA) to create a three division competition in which the NTFL would make the premier League whilst the NTFL reserve competition and clubs from the TEAFA would incorporate the First Division and Second Divisions.
The 2012/2013 season saw Banks Bulldogs and the Central Australian Football Club placed on a four-match trial in the premier League, for possible full-time inclusion. The Bulldogs, originally a part of the TEAFA competition, would stay in the NTFL Division One competition. But the CAFC team would continue their trial run in the premier League, the number of games extended to 10 for the 2013/2014 season. However, the side did not become a permanent team in the competition.
Competition structure
The competition consists of both junior and senior divisions.
The A Grade competition is known as the NTFL Men's Premier League and has nine clubs: Darwin, Nightcliff, Palmerston, PINT, Southern Districts, St Mary's, Tiwi Bombers, Wanderers, and Waratah.
The men's reserves are divided into three divisions known as Men's Premier League Reserves (B Grade), Division 1 (C Grade), and Division 2 (D Grade): Premier League Reserves consists of all Premier League teams except Tiwi, who are replaced with Banks. Divisions 1 and 2 include thirds teams of the premier League clubs, except for the Tiwi Bombers (Palmerston are affiliated with former TEAFA club University), along with the senior teams of two other clubs which were formerly in the TEAFA competition in Banks and Tracy Village, and the Jabiru Bombers.
The Women's Premier League competition has consisted of the nine Men's Premier League clubs since 2023. Division 1 (B Grade) and 2 (C Grade) Women's hold the reserves for Women's Premier League (some sides) with the addition of Banks, Tracy Village, and Jabiru.
The junior division is broken into age groups: Under 18's, Under 16's, Under 14's, Under 12's, and Under 10's with Boys and Girls divisions across all and Under 12's and 10's having mixed divisions. The Under 18's is the only junior division with a fixed number of clubs, including all Premier League clubs except for the Tiwi Bombers; While the rest of the junior divisions vary based on participation levels each year, there are eleven clubs with juniors, the nine Premier League clubs, Tracy Village and Banks.
