National Premier League NSW clubs have urged Football Federation Australia to ban gambling on state league games, after alleging match-fixing is taking place in the semi-professional competition.

Just a day after FFA sanctioned a player in Tasmania for betting on games involving his own club, at least one NSW team has publicly alleged widespread misconduct within the competition, with players or staff betting, match-fixing, spot-fixing or providing insider information.

The lure of using insider information to capitalise on odds and potentially influence results is proving too much to resist for state league players earning part-time salaries, according to several clubs, which believe the competition could fall victim to corruption.

One specific match result has come under the scrutiny of concerned clubs.
