Football Queensland has confirmed the Provisional Declaration of Leagues for the 2026 season, encompassing FQ’s regional FQPL men’s and women’s leagues.
The Provisional Declaration of Leagues includes the proposed composition of men’s and women’s leagues across the regional FQPL competitions, constructed in accordance with and determined by the rules of competition and sporting merit.
“Our regional FQPL competitions continue to go from strength to strength, delivering opportunities for players, clubs and communities across Queensland to engage in high-quality football close to home,” FQ CEO Robert Cavallucci said.
“The 2025 season delivered plenty of memorable moments across our regional leagues, with players and teams showcasing the passion and quality that make these competitions such a vital part of our game. A standout highlight was FQPL Far North’s Marlin Coast Rangers claiming the Mitre FQPL Champions League title with a strong win over FQPL 1 side Magic United.
“The FQPL framework provides stability and consistency for regional clubs while supporting their growth on and off the field. This structure ensures our competitions remain sustainable and competitive, giving players the chance to develop and succeed within their own regions.”
“As we look ahead to 2026, this Provisional Declaration of Leagues reflects the outcomes of the 2025 season while also accounting for team movements, mergers and withdrawals across the regional FQPL structure. We’re excited to see these competitions continue to thrive across both men’s and women’s football in the year ahead.”
Clubs are now completing the affiliation and licensing process to meet all required criteria. This ensures they are eligible for their assigned league and ready for the upcoming season.
A club’s appearance in the ‘Provisional Declaration of Leagues’ is not confirmation of inclusion in the ‘Final Declaration of Leagues’. A club’s participation in the FQPL leagues for the 2026 season is contingent upon final league design, affiliation confirmation, approval and compliance with a variety of conditions (mandatory or otherwise) contained within various participation licence agreements. No league participation is guaranteed to any club in any league until the Final Declaration of Leagues is issued by FQ.
