History
Original clubs formed in 1970 were East Mackay Demons, West Mackay Magpies (later Walkerston), and North Mackay Colts.
- 1971 saw Bakers Creek join.
- 1975 Moranbah joined and stayed until 1982 when they returned to the central highland due to work commitments.
- 1977 saw another new club, Mackay City.
- 1980 Dysart joined
- 1982 Middlemount joined. Dysart and Middlemount along with Moranbah returned the central highlands as shift work was being the killer for the teams.
- 1983 there came a break away from the North Mackay team and they called themselves Trend United.
- 1985 Airlie Beach came into the competition. They changed their name to Whitsunday in 1990.
- 1987 East Mackay and Trend United amalgamated to become known as Eastern Swans.
- 1989 Moranbah came back but the same problems arose, shift work and in 1993 again returned to the central highlands.
- 1990 Mackay City changed their name to Northern Beaches and then back to Mackay City in 1998.
