The New South Wales State League Division One is the third-highest state level men's association football division in New South Wales, Australia. The competition is conducted by Football NSW, the state's governing body.
After the end of the 2006 season, Mt Druitt Town were promoted to the NSW Winter Super League. Sydney Wanderers, Dulwich Hill and Canterbury Bankstown were demoted down into the Division One competition. The University of NSW were also promoted up from Division Two(Now Conference Leagues) into the competition. White City and Hurstville City Minotaurs was demoted to Conference League North and to Conference League South respectively.
In 2008 there will be a shake-up of the whole New South Wales Men's, Women's and Youth competitions. There will be a restructuring of the youth teams so they're aligned with their Senior Clubs. There will be also a restructuring of the Men's Senior competitions including new teams added to the NSW Premier League and a new Promotion/Relegation system.
