The Western Sydney Wanderers women’s football department confirmed positive COVID-19 cases via PCR testing on 31 December and 1 January, with all players, coaches and staff now in isolation and awaiting further results, while following the NSW Health directives.
The A-Leagues protocols continue to be effective for screening and subsequent PCR testing in detecting the virus and ensuring immediate isolation.


Our primary concern is for the health, wellbeing and safety of all players, staff and their families. All positive cases and those close to them are adhering to relevant state government health directives, in close consultation with the A-Leagues.

We will continue to work with the Western Sydney Wanderers and Canberra United on confirming a new schedule for the postponed match as soon as possible.
