NPL 2026

New NPL ITK account it seems, this is not true at all though so whatever it says I wouldn't take notice. In fact they are now allowed to freely sign players for the upcoming season.
 
I think they've been knocked back by FNSW.

They are wanting to take over St George FA who are in NPL

There is all sorts of dodgy shit going on from what ive heard.
Yep one of the worst around.
 
FNSW refusing to find a 16th club for the 3rd div, 5? years after Bathurst pulled out is baffling.

It's like they want to put minimal effort into running the comp unlike other states which are opening up the pyramid.

Its because teams don't want to go to Bathurst. Its the same reason Wagga Wagga was kicked out. Clubs don't want to fork out the travel and accommodation (sometimes twice a year) and players were complaining.
 
Correct, and the problems it will give them. Same with Banksia.

FNSW are focusing on getting another team from the Manly / Northern Beaches area or the new Airport Region.

right approach thats for sure.
Now IF only Bulls didn't get Northbridge that could have been another North NPL Club as it was originally.
Manly area trouble is Clubs don't seem to want to step out of Association comps - Pittwater for eg - always been a good strong local Club.
Have played against them at Prem1 levels and later my son has vs'd them pre season games, alot of good talent - Manly can take only what they can fill so there is plenty capable players to step up.

Wasn't saying there should be a Bathurst or Wagga team (Wagga voluntarily left to ACT at the time).

I'm saying it's been 5 years and they haven't done anything to add a 16th team instead of having a stupid bye.
