2019 National Premier Leagues WA

The competition reverted to a twelve-team format, [1] and was played over 22 rounds, followed by an end of season Top 4 Cup competition. Promotion and Relegation was dependent on whether Gwelup Croatia (as the team finishing first in the State League 1) met a series of eligibility criteria, [2] which they did; this meant that Stirling Lions would be relegated for the following season.
