Sad news for those of you who are not fans of the bye... it will be an 11-team league. Current qualifying plus Auckland FC reserves. 10 games and a bye apiece.

NZF are looking at options for 2026, whether that is reverting to 10 teams, sticking with 11 or expanding to 12
That's disappointing - I'm sure Southern and Central clubs will be disappointed there isn't a potential extra spot up for grabs.

Not surprised though as the more fixtures they add the more expensive it gets for the clubs with more travel etc
