A bit of History

North Hobart played their first senior game of football on 4 May 1895. The match was played against Kingston (our opponents this weekend) at the Southern Tasmanian Football Association ground at Risdon (the current site of the Cornelian Bay hockey grounds).

North Hobart had been encouraged to join the senior competition as they had won back to back junior premierships in 1893 and 1894.

The respective captains were H.Semple (North Hobart) and W. Abbott (Kingston). The match was won by North Hobart 4 goals 4 behinds 28 points to Kingston 3 goals 7 behinds 25 points.

Special trains ran from Hobart to convey players and spectators to the ground. The return fare 3d.
