History
Pre WWII (Late 1800s–1945)
Australian Football began on Kangaroo Island in the late 1800s, with the first organised competition beginning in 1908 with the formation of Kingscote and Dudley United clubs. Wisanger joined in 1910, thereafter several clubs came and went such as Muston.Post WWII (1946– )
The Kangaroo Island Football League was formed in 1946 with founding clubs of Kingscote and Wisanger. They were joined by Parndana, American River and Nepean Bay. With the demise of the latter two clubs & Dudley United unable to field a team, Western Districts was formed in 1970. Dudley United was re-introduced in 1976, with the league maintaining that structure to the present day. The reserve competition was formed in 1966. Kingscote & Parndana schools played football against prior to the formation of Senior colts in 1967 as an U15's competition, in 1976 saw it change to U16's, reverting back to U15's in 2002. The junior colts was formed in 1970, formerly called the minis, and in 1976 it was changed to U13's and today it is the U12's. Mini League was played at half time of A Grade matches in the 80's & 90's before becoming Auskick in the 2000's & being played in the mornings.Grade Structure
As of 2018 the KIFL hosts 5 grades of competition, which include two senior grades, A-Grade & Reserves, and 3 colts grades, U15's, U12's & AusKick. Currently all clubs have one team in all levels of competition.Premierships
