The 1910 Victorian soccer season was the second competitive season of soccer in the Australian state of Victoria, under association with the governing body of Football Victoria. The season consisted of one league made up of six Melbourne based district teams from the 1909 season plus a seventh addition being 'South Melbourne'. This only competitive league was known as the 'Amateur League', as per the season prior, and is recognized as being the second season of first tier Victorian state soccer that is now formally recognized as the National Premier Leagues Victoria. Carlton United were crowned as the inaugural premiers in 1909, and achieved this same feat in the 1910 season. The calendar season also saw the second tournament of the Dockerty Cup, in which Carlton United defeated Prahran 1–0.[1] The calendar year's conclusion saw the folding of its first club being Melbourne United and was replaced by 'Burns' going into the 1911 season.
