Adelaide Plains FL

The Adelaide Plains Football League was formed in 1909.
==History==
The league resumed after World War 2 in 1945 with six clubs - Avon, Balaklava, Hamley Bridge, Long Plains, Mallala and Wasleys. In 1946 Owen and Dublin joined the league but in 1948 Avon departed. In 1950 Dublin went into recess, returning in 1954. In 1957 RAAF fielded a team, but they only lasted until 1960, the year after Dublin folded. South Gawler joined the league in 1961 along with Roseworthy College, but the former left in 1963 while Wasleys folded. In 1964 Long Plains and Hamley Bridge merged to form United while Roseworthy College left and Port Wakefield, Hummocks and Watchman joined. Port Wakefield promptly went into recess but they returned in 1968.
In 1970 Two Wells/Virginia arrived in the competition but they left in 1974 while Port Wakefield and Owen merged. In 1975 Watchman added Avon to their name. In 1977 Port Wakefield/Owen went into recess, returning in 1978 as just Port Wakefield. In 1981 the newly merged Mundoora/Wokurna joined the league, but they departed in 1984. In 1985 Hummocks merged with Watchman/Avon as Hummocks/Watchman, while Hamley Bridge emerged on it's own again and Roseworthy joined. In 1987 Two Wells returned on it's own. In 1995 Virginia did likewise while Hummocks/Watchman merged with Port Wakefield and were known as HWPW. Roseworthy left the competition in 1998.
The competition stayed at seven clubs for a decent period of time until 2016 when Angle Vale joined the competition. The COVID-19 pandemic caused HWPW and Balaklave to go into recess for the season and Bute joined for the season as the Yorke Peninsula FL had abadoned it's season. The competition was restored to it's 2019 form in 2021.
