Each state runs its own NPL. None of them is linked to the A-League by promotion.
API-Football doesn't mark these leagues' promotion, relegation or finals places, so they aren't coloured.
✓ Aus Championship: in the Australian Championship 2026, either as one of the eight foundation clubs (APIA Leichhardt Tigers, Avondale, Marconi Stallions, Preston Lions, South Melbourne, Sydney Olympic, Sydney United, Wollongong Wolves) or as its state's qualifier.
NSW: Blacktown City's relegation play-off and League One's promotion aren't recorded here yet.
Western Australia: The inter-divisional play-off isn't recorded here yet.
South Australia: Modbury Jets' promotion play-off isn't recorded here yet.
Northern NSW: Kahibah stayed up by winning the promotion/relegation play-off.
▼ Relegated / ▲ Promoted: the moves for 2027 as announced by each state's federation.

Each state runs its own second division, below its NPL, with its own promotion and relegation rules.
API-Football doesn't mark these leagues' places, so they aren't coloured. It has no Capital Territory second division.
NSW: Blacktown City's relegation play-off and League One's promotion aren't recorded here yet.
Western Australia: The inter-divisional play-off isn't recorded here yet.
South Australia: Modbury Jets' promotion play-off isn't recorded here yet.
Northern NSW: Kahibah stayed up by winning the promotion/relegation play-off.
▲ Promoted / ▼ Relegated: the moves for 2027 as announced by each state's federation.

The site doesn't cover a State second division for the ACT yet.
