The 1930 season commenced on 3 May[1] and concluded on 13 September.
S.A. Railways entered the competition, their home ground at Railways Oval (Park 25).[2] Mount Barker were also admitted into the Amateur League, playing at Dunn Park.[3] As South Adelaide Ramblers did not re-affiliate, only Henley & Grange were demoted to A2. Kingswood and Teachers Training College were promoted to A1 along with Mount Barker to form an even eight-team competition. Railways were admitted to A2 making that a seven-team competition. Semaphore Central played its matches at Largs Reserve.[4][5]
