The Newcastle Jets FC, also known as the Newcastle Jets Women, is a professional Australian women's soccer club. Founded in 2008, it is the affiliated women's team of Newcastle Jets. The team competes in the country's national women's soccer competition, the A-League Women, under licence from The Australian Professional Leagues (APL).
History
Establishment
Formed in 2008, following the Australian women's national soccer team's most successful experience at a FIFA Women's World Cup and the call for the establishment of a professional women's league, the W-League was initially composed of eight teams: Adelaide United, Brisbane Roar, Central Coast Mariners, Melbourne Victory, Newcastle Jets, Perth Glory, and Sydney FC. Seven of the eight teams were affiliated with men's Hyundai A-League clubs, and shared their names and colours to promote their brands. The eighth club was the Canberra-based Canberra United. Naming rights were secured by Westfield, a company co-founded by Frank Lowy.
Matildele sunt una dintre cele mai de succes echipe naționale de fotbal feminin din Asia, câștigând Cupa Asiei a Femeilor de opt ori, inclusiv de cinci ori la rând între 2010 și 2018. Echipa s-a calificat, de asemenea, la fiecare ediție a Cupei Mondiale Feminine FIFA de la înființarea sa în 1991 și a găzduit turneul în 2023.
Principalii jucători ai Australiei sunt: Sam Kerr, Ellie Carpenter, Caitlin Foord, Steph Catley și Lydia Williams. Echipa joacă meciurile pe teren propriu pe diferite stadioane din Australia, inclusiv Stadium Australia, Perth Oval și Melbourne Rectangular Stadium.
Matildele sunt clasificate în prezent pe locul 11 în Clasamentul Mondial FIFA.
