Overview

Dockerty Cup

The second installment of the Dockerty Cup then known as the 'Challange Cup', was won by Carlton United after defeating Prahran 1–0 in the grand final.[1] The lead up to the final as of 2020 remains unknown.[2]

Premiership season

The season consisted of one league made up of six Melbourne based district teams from the 1909 season plus a seventh addition being 'South Melbourne'. It is unknown whether this particular 'South Melbourne' team was the same team that was meant to compete in the 1909 season, but shortly withdrew before the season's commencement.[3] The season was extended by having the teams play each other twice, not once, resulting in twelve rounded season. The inaugural premiers Carlton United were crowned as premiers for a second time, being undefeated without drawing a match. The calendar year's conclusion saw the folding of its first club being Melbourne United and was replaced by 'Burns' going into the 1911 season.
