Isuzu UTE Australia (IUA) has kicked-off this year’s action-packed season of the Isuzu UTE A-League Men’s and Ninja A-League Women’s competitions, with the partnership between the Australian Professional Leagues and IUA entering its fourth year.
2024-25 season marks the 20th anniversary of Australia and New Zealand’s premier professional football league. With the inaugural Men’s A-League season held in 2005, before the first Women’s A-League season commenced in 2008, this 2024-25 edition is set to be the best season yet.
Marking the start of the celebrations will be the much anticipated 2023-24 Grand Final rematch between defending Isuzu UTE A-League Men’s Champions, Central Coast Mariners and runners-up, Melbourne Victory, in the first Round 1 fixture on Friday 18th of October.
Two weeks later, the hotly contested Ninja A-League Women’s season will begin, with Western United opposing Wellington Phoenix, on Friday 1st of November.
Taking to the pitch across the season will be several CommBank Matildas, Subway Socceroos and international representative players, bringing with them star power and football finesse to create the most exhilarating Isuzu UTE A-League season yet.
A highlight of the milestone 20th season will be Unite Round, with all teams across the Isuzu UTE A-League and Ninja A-League coming together to play a complete round of 12 matches at Sydney’s Allianz Stadium and Leichhardt Oval, from 22nd – 24th of November 2024.
