# 2011 NEAFL season

The 2011 NEAFL season was the inaugural season of the North East Australian Football League (NEAFL). The season began on Saturday, 2 April and concluded on Saturday, 24 September with the 2011 NEAFL Grand Final.
NT Thunder were the Northern Division Champions after defeating Morningside in the Northern Conference Grand Final, whilst Ainslie defeated the Sydney Swans in the Eastern Conference Grand Final to become the Eastern Conference Champions. The cross-conference grand final resulted in NT Thunder defeating Ainslie, ultimately resulting in becoming the 2011 NEAFL Premiers.

## League structure

The league is split into two divisions called the North division and the East division. The North division comprises nine teams based in South East Queensland (five in Brisbane and four on the Gold Coast) as well as one based in the Northern Territory. The East division contains five teams based in the Australian Capital Territory and two based in Sydney. The top three teams from the 2010 QAFL and the top team from the 2010 AFL Canberra season all qualified for the Foxtel Cup.
