Congratulations to our Auckland United FC Premier Women who have qualified for the National League with 3 rounds still to play in the LottoNRFL season.

Following their 3 - 0 win over Ellerslie AFC at Waikaraka Park today the team also leaped back to the top of the table, 2 points clear of Eastern Suburbs with a game in hand and a vastly superior goal difference.

It’s been an impressive season thus far under Head Coach Ben Bate who will be pleased with the result but already looking ahead to a somewhat tricky and drawn out finish to the Lotto NRFL season with our catch up match vs Western Springs not until Friday 4 August, followed by Hamilton Wanderers on 13 August in Hamilton.

The final round of the league season is then not played until 27 August, again vs Western Springs but back home at Keith Hay Park for that final round clash.

We love seeing this team succeed and can’t wait to see how far they can continue to go in 2023!
