The 2019 National Premier Leagues was the seventh season of the Australian National Premier Leagues football competition. The league competition was played by eight separate state and territory member federations. The divisions are ACT, NSW, Northern NSW, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia. The winners of each respective divisional league competed in a finals series tournament at season end, culminating in a Grand Final.

Wollongong Wolves were crowned National Premier Leagues Champions and originally qualified directly for the 2020 FFA Cup Round of 32.^[1] Since that competition was cancelled, Wollongong Wolves qualified for the 2021 FFA Cup Round of 32.^[2]
