Those Blacktown boys have got a long drive of around 2.5 hours.

• Western NSW
  • Macquarie United - two clubs in Western NSW are named Macquarie United, and it is unclear which of these this entrant is. One competed from Dubbo in the (2024) 05.

You don’t have any of the Central Qld zone clubs here, or in the clubs that entered in 2024 but not 2025 list. I believe that in 2025 only one club (Frenchville) has entered, but in 2024 most FQPL3 Central Qld clubs entered (Frenchville plus Bluebirds, Nerimbera, Capricorn Coast, Clinton, Central off the top of my head, and maybe others).

You don’t have any of the Central Qld zone clubs here, or in the clubs that entered in 2024 but not 2025 list. I believe that in 2025 only one club (Frenchville) has entered, but in 2024 most FQPL3 Central Qld clubs entered (Frenchville plus Bluebirds, Nerimbera, Capricorn Coast, Clinton, Central off the top of my head, and maybe others).

All good - yeah must have skimmed over that in the spreadsheet - I have them in there, just there was a big block of empty of this year so must have missed it.

Have looked on both Wiki and the Squadi fixtures for 2024, and only have Frenchville and Clinton entering for 2024.

As for this year - have missed Frenchville due to the Round 4 fixtures not being published yet (Where Frenchville begins their journey) on FQ Fixtures/Results page for the Cup, and had used this as the base for participation. But have confirmed their participation through Brenton's updates, and will update the regional lists.
