**South Australia were scheduled to play in Sandhurst on August 22nd. The match was mentioned in Melbourne and Adelaide papers that day, yet no further mention of the match has been found in contemporary sources. It appears that, for reasons unknown, the South Australians did not travel to Sandhurst.
***Geelong FC were led by their former captain, Jack Baker (who was playing for Carlton FC at that time)

However, an earlier version of the NTFA was formed on May 5, 1882 and was the controlling body for football in the north of the state until 1885. Due to internal tensions the association disbanded that year and the surviving clubs spent the 1885 season affiliated with the Northern Tasmanian Junior FA before forming the second NTFA in 1886.
