The 2021 New Zealand National League is the first season of the National League since its restructuring in 2021. Ten teams compete in the competition, with four qualifying from the Northern League, three qualifying from the Central League and two qualifying from the Southern League along with the automatically qualified Wellington Phoenix Reserves.[1] Each team can field a maximum of four foreign players as well as one additional foreign player who has Oceania Football Confederation nationality.[2] Each team must also have at least two players aged 20 or under in the starting eleven.[3]
Because the Wellington Phoenix Reserves need to hold a partnership with an affiliated club through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to be in the league and have a place in the Championship phase,[1] their current MoU is with Lower Hutt City.[4] This means Lower Hutt cannot qualify for the Championship even if they finish in the top three of the Central League.[1][5]
New Zealand Football announced on the 14 September that they had decided to terminate the remainder of the Northern League season and cancel any yet to be played fixtures due to Covid-19 and Auckland being in Level 4.[6] The decision was made due to the fact that they couldn't complete all the games before Championship phase was due to begin, so places in the next phase where awarded off the standing before Auckland went into lockdown.[6]
On the 8 October, New Zealand Football announced a change in plans to the Championship phase of the 2021 competition due to COVID-19 alert levels.[7] The Championship phase was split up into two 'Hubs', the Auckland Hub and the South Hub, where teams play every other team in their hub in a single round robin. The top two from each hub then qualify for a finals phase consisting of semis and a Grand Final.[7]

South Central Series[]
With confirmation that the alert levels not changing to a level that would allow Auckland and Waikato teams to play in the National Competition, New Zealand Football announced that they were cancelling this seasons National League. In its place, they instead decided on a one-off interregional competition, the National League: South Central Series. New Zealand Football also confirmed that the National League: South Central Series does not have any bearing on OFC Champions League qualification, which is separately being discussed with the OFC.[45]

South Central positions by round[]
The table lists the positions of teams after each week of matches. To preserve chronological evolvements, any postponed matches are not included in the round at which they were originally scheduled, but added to the full round they were played immediately afterwards. For example, if a match is scheduled for round 13, but then postponed and played between rounds 16 and 17, it is added to the standings for round 16.
