Football NSW has today confirmed the full release of all match-day schedules for the 2026 Football NSW competitions, covering every tier from elite NPL programs through to youth development pathways.
The announcement includes complete fixtures for the NPL Men’s and Women’s, Senior Men’s and Women’s Leagues, Boys’ and Girls’ Youth Leagues, MJDL, GJDL, and AYL competitions, marking a major milestone in preparations for the upcoming season.
Football NSW Competitions Manager Troy McColl said the release of the schedules represents a significant collaborative effort across the football community.
“As Head of Competitions, I am pleased to confirm the release of the 2026 Match Schedules over 13,000 matches across all Competitions, reaffirming Football NSW’s position as the largest and most competitive Member Federation in the country,” McColl said.
“Our Men’s and Women’s leagues again deliver Australia’s most extensive programs, with 30-round and 26-round seasons designed to maximise development and align with Football Australia’s high-performance frameworks.
“The strength of our competitions is driven by the commitment of our NPL and State League Clubs, supported by the continued involvement of A-League Academies, which further enhances the depth and quality of our pathways.
“Our Boys (U13–U18) and Girls Youth Leagues (U14–U18), along with our Mixed and Girls Junior Development Leagues (ages 9–13), remain fundamental to the state’s development system, providing essential technical and competitive progression. Our Regional Youth and Development programs also play a critical role, ensuring access to meaningful competition and clear advancement opportunities for participants across NSW.
“Importantly, these leagues support the growth of not only players but also referees, coaches, and the many non-playing personnel who contribute to the game. Each competition provides valuable development environments that strengthen the entire football ecosystem.
“Collectively, this structure forms the most comprehensive development framework in the country, underpinning the national pathway and supporting all participants as they work toward higher opportunities, including the A-Leagues and, ultimately, national team representation.”
Football NSW has extended its thanks to all Clubs for their ongoing assistance and professionalism throughout the fixture-formatting process.
