Final season tables -- Brisbane and District Soccer Football Association 1929
First-grade teams are listed in bold.
A final series (known as the 'Grand Premiership Cup') was to be held this season to determine the premier team in Division 1, however the three Ipswich teams withdrew from the series over a dispute about the distribution of gate receipts.
The Ipswich clubs were suspended and fined by the BDFA, however the QFA upheld an appeal against this decision, after which the Brisbane and Ipswich clubs were not reconciled.
The BDFA was would up in July 1930, but prior to this administration responsibility for senior football had been taken over by separate new limited companies in Brisbane and Ipswich set up in February 1930.
