The Northern Tasmanian Football Association (NTFA) was an Australian rules football competition which ran from 1886 to 1986. In its time it was one of the three main leagues in Tasmania, with the Tasmanian Football League and North West Football Union representing the rest of the state. It was based around the city of Launceston.
In 1987, the NTFA merged with the North West Football Union to form the Northern Tasmanian Football League. A new Northern Tasmanian Football Association was then formed, in 1996, for Tasmanian amateur clubs. The three most successful clubs of the old NTFA, Launceston, North Launceston and City-South, went on to compete in the short-lived TFL Statewide League.
