He played for Scotland in the third of the unofficial matches prior to the first official international match, a 1–1 draw on 25 February 1871 playing under the pseudonym "F. Maclean". In the final against, on 29 March 1873, the University were defeated 2–0. The following year, the University again reached the final and (with Maddison now on the right) this time they were successful, defeating the Royal Engineers by two goals to nil.
Maddison was involved in the move which resulted in the second goal, when he, together with Cuthbert Ottaway and Robert Vidal, "dribbled their way to the Engineers" goal, where Frederick Patton was waiting to slide the ball between the posts." After a 1–1 draw in the first match against the Old Etonians, the Wanderers were victorious in the replay which ended 3–0.
This was the first year of the Wanderers" "hat-trick" of final victories. Maddison also played for amateur club Crystal Palace (not the later professional club) and the Civil Service, and in representative matches for London and The South versus The North.
In 1876, Maddison became a barrister and was called to the bar, but in 1884 he was disbarred at his own request, so that he could practice as a solicitor. They had two children, Diana Marion Adela and Noel Cecil Guy, born in 1886 and 1888 respectively.
From around 1894, the couple played a major part in encouraging and facilitating the entry onto the London musical scene of the French composer Gabriel Fauré.
Frederick was then working for a music publishing company, Metzler, which obtained a contract to publish Fauré"s music during 1896–1901. Fauré was a friend of the family and in 1896 vacationed at their residence in Saint-Lunaire, Brittany. Frederick Maddison died in Germany on 25 September 1907, at Moabit Hospital, Berlin.
