The NPL Queensland premiers qualified 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 2017.

On 8 December 2016 Football Queensland announced the commencement in 2018 of a 14 team second competition beneath a 14 team NPL Queensland, with promotion and relegation between the two tiers.[1] The 28 clubs selected to participate in NPL Queensland and the FQPL were initially announced on 29 May 2017.[2] The final list of clubs offered licences was made of 3 August 2017, with 12 clubs from Football Brisbane competitions (10 BPL and 2 CL1) to join the Football Queensland leagues in 2018.[3] As a result, on 4 August 2017 Football Brisbane announced the restructure of its men's league for the 2018 season, with most clubs effectively moving up one division.[4]
