Northern Football Alliance 2011-12

Northern Football Alliance er en fodboldliga i North East England og Cumbria i England for amatørhold. Ligaen består af tre divisioner, Premier Division med 16 hold, Division One med 11 hold og Division Two med 16 hold. Divisionerne befinder sig på niveau 11-13 i ligasystemet i engelsk fodbold.

Vinderen af Premier Division kan rykke op i Northern League Division Two. De bedst placerede hold i Division One og Two bliver rykket op i henholdsvis Premier Division og Division One, mens lavest placerede hold i Division Two kan blive nedrykket til North Northumberland League Division One eller Tyneside Amateur League Division One, afhængig af holdets geografiske placering.

Northern Football Alliance blev grundlagt i 1890 som en liga bestående af én division med syv hold. I 1926 blev den til 2. division af North Eastern League, men den blev udskilt igen i 1935. Ligaen lukkede i 1964 på grund af mangel på hold men blev gendannet blot én sæson senere, i 1965-66.

I 1988 fusionerede Northern Amateur League og Northern Combination League med Northern Football Alliance under sidstnævntes navn, hvorved det nuværende format med tre divisioner opstod.
