The Queensland Australian Football League (QAFL) was an Australian rules football competition for clubs from South East Queensland.
Up until 2010, the QAFL was the premier semi-professional competition in Queensland, with salary cap rules and regulations in place.
It was previously known as the Queensland Football League (QFL), Queensland Australian National Football League (QANFL), Queensland Australian Football League (QAFL) and AFL Queensland State League (AFLQSL).
In November 2010 the league's Premier Division merged with AFL Canberra to form the North East Australian Football League, featuring all its previous teams as well as the Gold Coast Football Club reserve team in the Northern Conference of the league. The lower division clubs will continue to play as a local competition.
