Everything you need to know about plans for Australia's National Second Division
The A-League is set to receive some much needed company in the coming years
Football Federation Australia have ramped up preparations for a National Second Division releasing a discussion paper as they look to work out the final details of what it will look like.
The A-League has been Australia's sole source of top-flight professional football for over a decade now with the National Premier League serving as a disconnected lower rung on the round ball pyramid Down Under.
With opportunities at a premium for young local footballers and an ultimate desire to introduce promotion and relegation to the A-League, a National Second Division is seen as a logical next step for football in Australia.
