Final season tables -- Brisbane and Districts Football Association 1937

First-grade teams are listed in bold.

No final series were held this season.

The Brisbane and Districts Football Association was formed in February 1937 to administer senior football competitions in Brisbane and Ipswich.

The formation of the new body unified competition in Brisbane and Ipswich for the first time since 1929.

The Brisbane District Football Association and the Ipswich and West Moreton British Football Association were dissolved upon the formation of the new association.

The new Brisbane and Districts Football Association lasted just 12 months until its roles were assumed by the Queensland Soccer Council in early 1938.
