Tasman Football Association

The Tasman Football Association was an Australian rules football competition in Tasmania, Australia. The association had origins back to 1902 when games were played at random. In 1919 a proper association was set up. The Association went into recess during World War II but returned.

The association folded 2001 with the Dodges Ferry Sharks moving to the Southern Football League while the Swansea Football Club and Triabunna Football Club moved to the Oatlands District Football Association (ODFA) a year prior. Campania folded but reformed in 2007 and joined the ODFA.
