Preliminary Round

[edit]

Due to the popularity of this year's edition, 48 teams from local Associations and NSW State League Division 2 entered the initial phase of the competition. This led to the creation of the Preliminary Round where 16 clubs were randomly chosen to play. 9 clubs were from the State League Division 2 and the other 7 were from local associations. The remaining 24 clubs would receive a bye into the first round.[3] With the round set to kick-off on 25 March, only tie numbers 1–4 were played[8] with the remaining matches rescheduled to the following week.[9]
