The 2014 Southern Football League (SFL) premiership season was an Australian rules football competition staged across Southern Tasmania, Australia, over eighteen (18) roster rounds and six (6) finals series matches between 11 April and 13 September 2014.

The competition's major sponsor for the season was Worksafe Tasmania, Boag's Draught and Telstra.

From this season the Hobart Football Club, who had previously participated in the league from 1998-2008 rejoined the SFL after five seasons of participation in the Tasmanian State League. With AFL Tasmania's decision to issue only one licence for a club to participate in the TSL from inner-city Hobart from 2014 onwards, the sport's governing body attempted to force a merger of Hobart and North Hobart Football Clubs to participate as Hobart City in the TSL.
Hobart Football Club's members voted against the proposal in favour of rejoining the SFL and were duly accepted back into the competition.
North Hobart also attempted to seek a return to the league but were advised that they would be unlikely to be accepted.
As a prerequisite of rejoining the SFL, Hobart were banned from seeking the recruitment of other players within the league for a period of twelve months, with almost their entire senior list seeking to remain playing at state league level, the Tigers had only two players on the training track in the pre-season and after a crisis meeting in which the club was only two days away from going out of business, Hobart were able to garner enough players in order to field a senior and reserve grade side for the season.
