A-League Women News

A-Leagues commissioner Nick Garcia is set to depart his position at the Australian Professional Leagues (APL) multiple sources have told ESPN, leaving the Australian top-flight without leadership heading into a critical juncture.

Brisbane Roar coach Alex Smith says the transfer of Sharn Freier to Wolfsburg shows the A-League Women has become a development league for high-paying overseas clubs.

Born out of an uneasy truce, Unite Round continues to divide fans and pundits. So, is there a future for it in the A-League?

Emily Gielnik takes no time to score from the initial kick-off to put Melbourne Victory up over Western United.

Following the recommendation from the PFA that the A-League Women move to full-time professionalism by 2026-27, The Far Post discuss how exasperating it is that this change still hasn't been made.
