Wellington, this is your moment. Your Phoenix women face reigning champions Central Coast Mariners this Sunday 15 February, kick-off 4pm. Show up, pack out Porirua Park, and help power the finals push Andrew.
Sitting second on the table, the Phoenix women made history on Waitangi Day with a fourth straight win, a 1–0 victory over Perth Glory at Sky Stadium. Now they need Wellington behind them to keep it rolling.

On matchday, football brings people together, families, friends, and communities. But beyond the stands, many women and children across Aotearoa are living with a very different reality.
One in three women in Aotearoa will experience abuse in their lifetime, and New Zealand continues to have one of the highest family violence rates in the OECD. Nearly half of all homicides and reported violent crimes are linked to family violence, and around 50,000 women and children are referred to Women’s Refuge each year.
That’s why, in collaboration with Chemist Warehouse, we’re standing with Te Whare Tiaki Wāhine Refuge on matchday.
