Today, Friday, 3 March, Football Tasmania officially launched the 2023 McDonald’s National Premier Leagues, the State’s elite men’s competition.
Players, coaches and presidents from the eight NPL sides were present, along with Football Tasmania CEO Matt Bulkeley.
The McDonald’s NPL will feature eight teams in 2023 – Clarence Zebras, Glenorchy Knights, Kingborough Lions, South Hobart, Riverside Olympic, Devonport City Strikers, Launceston City and newcomers Launceston United.
Football Tasmania CEO Matt Bulkeley said: “This year we welcome Launceston United into the NPL – meaning that for the first time, there are four teams each in the North/North-West and South – and the introduction of a State-wide under-21s NPL development program.
“For the first time in a number of years, we will conclude our season with a final series – the ladder leader at the end of the home and away season will be our 2023 champions; however, finals will also be played past this point for a final series winner.
“We wish all of our teams the very best for the season ahead, and look forward to seeing them in action when the season gets underway on 17 March.”
