Sydney FC’s Westfield W-League team are coming back out to the suburbs! The W-League’s most successful club enter their tenth season in search of more silverware, and on 4 February 2018 again bring their exciting brand of football to the Sutherland Shire to showcase their skills.

Seymour Shaw Stadium will again host some of Australia’s best female football players with Sydney FC to take on Western Sydney Wanderers in a Westfield W-League local derby on 4 February 2018.
Sutherland is by far the strongest female football nursery in the country, with more than 6,000 registered female players, with local representative teams competing in the FNSW NPL1 competition in 2018 and many home grown Sutherland players playing for both Sydney FC and the Wanderers teams.

Make the most of this opportunity and show that football, and in particular women’s football, is a leader in the Sutherland community.

The last time that Sydney FC W-League played at Seymour Shaw the venue was sold out – so get in quick…. Bookings can be made via the following link:

Sydney FC’s Westfield W-League team are coming back out to the suburbs! The W-League’s most successful club enter their tenth season in search of more silverware, and on 4 February 2018 again bring their exciting brand of football to the Sutherland Shire to showcase their skills.

Seymour Shaw Stadium will again host some of Australia’s best female football players with Sydney FC to take on Western Sydney Wanderers in a Westfield W-League local derby on 4 February 2018.
Sutherland is by far the strongest female football nursery in the country, with more than 6,000 registered female players, with local representative teams competing in the FNSW NPL1 competition in 2018 and many home grown Sutherland players playing for both Sydney FC and the Wanderers teams.

Make the most of this opportunity and show that football, and in particular women’s football, is a leader in the Sutherland community.

The last time that Sydney FC W-League played at Seymour Shaw the venue was sold out – so get in quick…. Bookings can be made via the following link:
