National Soccer League
After winning New South Wales Division 1 in 1984, Inter Monaro entered the NSL for the 1985 season, replacing Melita Eagles in the Northern Conference. In their first season they finished 7th, two points outside of a finals position and one place below local rivals Canberra City who finished 6th. In 1985 National League Cup, Inter defeated West Woden 9–1 in the first round before being eliminated in the second round by Canberra 1–0.
The second season in the NSL was less successful. In the 1986 National League Cup, they were eliminated by Canberra City again, losing 2–1 in the first round. Inter finished bottom of the table with only three wins from 22 games, and a restructure of the national competition for the 1987 season cutting back to 13 teams saw the club relegated back to the NSW First Division.
