There were three divisions – Northern, Southern, and Western. Division winners played off for the NFL title.
The league was not decided by a one-match final. The three division winners played each other in a series of Inter-Divisional tests.[4] As Kerry and Kildare both defeated Mayo, it meant that the Kerry v Kildare tie was a 'de facto' final.
