Leven Football Association (LFA)

Founded in 1924, Leven is a small tourist centre known locally as Leven Canyon. It’s located on the North-West Coast line of Tasmania and is 42 kilometres from the town of Ulverstone.

Leven was built on the banks of the Leven River, which runs through 300-metre limestone cliffs, carved through the Loongana Range.

The LFA was formed in the first instance to cater for teams in the Ulverstone Municipality. Over time the LFA became a solid feeding-ground for clubs in both the NWFU and NTFA, but equally as important, for Ulverstone. After 92 years the LFA folded in 2016.

Clubs that joined the competition over the seasons included the following: Castra, Devonport Saints, East Ulverstone, Forth, Gawler, Kindred,Mersey Valley Workers Club, Motton Rovers, Motton-Preston, North Motton, Preston, Railton, South Riana, Sprent, Turners Beach, Ulverstone Juniors, Ulverstone Rovers, Upper Castra, West Ulverstone, Western Juniors, Wilmot and Zeehan,
