2014 National Premier Leagues WA[edit]
The 2014 National Premier Leagues season was the second season of the new national structure, and the first season with Western Australia participating. The highest division in WA replaced the previous Football West Premier League competition, which has been run in one form or another for over a century. The overall premier for the new structure qualifies for the National Premier Leagues finals series, competing with the other state federation champions in a final knockout tournament to decide the National Premier Leagues Champion for 2014.
It was played over 22 rounds as a full double round robin from March to August 2014.
A relegation system for the lowest team to the State League Division 1 was introduced after the 2015 season, and was subject to whether the top team from the State League Division 1 met certain NPL Eligibility Criteria.[1]
