National Soccer League (NSL) adalah liga sepak bola tingkat teratas di Australia yang dijalankan oleh Soccer Australia dan kemudian dilanjutkan oleh Asosiasi Sepak Bola Australia. NSL, pendahulu A-League, berjalan selama 28 musim dari awal pada 1977 hingga dibubarkan pada 2004, ketika digantikan oleh kompetisi A-League yang dijalankan oleh Federasi Sepak Bola Australia, penerus Asosiasi Sepak Bola Australia.^[1]^[2]

Selama sejarah NSL, liga ini diikuti oleh total 42 tim; 41 berbasis di Australia dan satu berbasis di Selandia Baru. Pada awalnya, musim pertandingan berjalan selama musim dingin, hingga pada tahun 1989 diubah menjadi pada musim panas. Pada tahun 1984, liga dibagi menjadi dua konferensi (Utara dan Selatan) agar lebih banyak tim yang dapat bergabung ke dalam kompetisi; sebelum kembali menjadi hanya satu divisi pada tahun 1987. Kompetisi ini dikenal dengan berbagai nama menurut hak sponsor, yakni Philips Soccer League, Olympic Airways Soccer League, Coca-Cola Soccer League, Piala Ericsson dan A-League.^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]

Sejak musim perdana liga hingga dibubarkan pada tahun 2004, total 13 klub menjadi juara liga (Champions) baik sebagai pemuncak klasemen maupun pemenang seri final yang berakhir pada pertandingan grand final.
