The 2024 New Zealand Men's National League was the fourth season of the National League since its restructuring in 2021. 32 clubs compete in the competition, with four qualifying from the Northern League, three qualifying from the Central League and two qualifying from the Southern League for the National Championship phase. Each team can field a maximum of four foreign players as well as one additional foreign player who has Oceania Football Confederation nationality. Over the course of the season, each team must also ensure players aged 20 or under account for 10% of available playing minutes.
The qualifying league fixtures were announced on 1 March 2024. The Northern League started on 22 March 2024 with the Central and Southern leagues starting the following weekend on 29 and 28 March respectively. The Northern and Central leagues concluded on 31 August 2024 with the Southern League concluding on 1 September 2024.
The week the Northern League started, NRF announced changes to the competition structure for the 2024 season to accommodate Auckland FC. Auckland FC will have a reserves team playing in the qualifying and championship phases from next season to fulfil their A-League Men requirements. To allow space for Auckland FC, the Northern League will now have a relegation play-off between the 10th place team and the runners up of the 2024 NRFL Championship for this season only.
The championship phase fixtures were announced on 17 September 2024, with the opening games to be played on 28 September 2024.
