About
The Riverland Football League (RFL) is located in South Australia’s Riverland region. The League had two divisions – the first division is for the main towns of the Riverland. The second division was called the Riverland Independent Football League, and was for the minor towns.
The origins of this league date to 1909 when Lyrup, Renmark Town and Fairview Rovers founded the Murray Football Association.
The competition reformed in 1919 as the Upper Murray Football Association and later in 1952 became the Upper Murray Football League, the same name as the Upper Murray Football League based around Corryong, Victoria.
The league changed its name in 1972 to the Riverland Football League, with the league’s second division changing from the Upper Murray B Grade Football League to the Riverland Independent Football League.
As of 2023, the Riverland Football League consists of 6 clubs, as the Independent Football has branched into its own league, the Murray Valley Football Netball League.
