During winter 2016-17 longtime NSL team Slammers decided they would not enter a team into the 2017 NSL 1 competition and so LNZ were saved from relegation to NSL 2. Manchester Dodgers won promotion from NSL 2 in 2016.

Bristol Bees club separated into two distinct teams for the 2017 season and the NSL 1 team will compete as Bristol NSL, leaving the NSL 2 team to compete as Bristol Bees.
