- NSW Super League
-
The New South Wales Super League is the second-highest state level men's association football division in New South Wales, Australia behind the NSW Premier League. The competition is conducted by Football NSW, the state's governing body.
In 2007, Penrith Nepean United left the Winter competition for the NSW Premier League and PCYC Parramatta Eagles moved into the Super League from Premier League. Sydney Wanderers, Canterbury Bankstown Berries and Dulwich Hill were demoted out of the competition to State League Division 1 and Mt Druitt Town Rangers were promoted from State League Division 1 to the Super League.
In 2008, there was a shake-up of the whole New South Wales Mens, Women's and Youth competitions. This included a restructuring of the youth teams (under 20s) to align them with their Senior Clubs, and a restructuring of the Men's Senior competitions including new teams added to the NSW Premier League and a new Promotion/Relegation system. Other clubs have also been promoted and relegated since.
