The competition's major sponsor for the season was Worksafe Tasmania, Boag's Draught and Telstra.

This was the final season of participation for the East Coast Bombers, a team composed of a small number of players from the Triabunna Football Club (formed in 1900) and mostly reserve grade players from TSL club, Lauderdale, which had developed a partnership in order to put a competitive team on the ground each week and give Lauderdale's reserves players a competition to play in after the TSL axed the reserves competition after 2010.

The following season Triabunna decided to resume as a stand-alone club and joined the Oatlands District Football Association.
