In 1908 a group of enthusiasts wanted to bring football to the town of Carnarvon. From a list of players two teams were created and a competition begun. The first two teams were called Carnarvon and Ramblers. In 1913 committee infighting caused the Ramblers to implode and were replaced by the Rovers. Several games were played but the season folded.
After The Great War interest again was sufficient for the competition to start again, this time the teams were Carnarvon and Gascoyne. This arrangement lasted from 1919 until the Great Depression cause difficulties and a restructure occurred in 1932. Two new teams were created, Federals and Rovers and this format lasted for three years before a lack of interest in the competition with four rounds remaining saw the 1934 season abandoned, despite one win separating the two clubs. Instead, matches were arranged against other towns.
Another restructure took place in 1935 with the town split into East Carnarvon and West Carnarvon, but a lack of East Carnarvon players saw the season abandoned without a premier being publicly declared in 1936. The CFA resumed in 1937 and in 1938, a third team Gascoyne was added as there were now sufficient players in Carnarvon. In 1939, there was no organised sport played in the town, with football, cricket and tennis all lapsing into recess in the lead up to World War II.
