SOUTHS UNITED PS4 NPLW UPDATE #1
On 11 July 2017, it was announced that Souths United FC was successful in our application to be awarded the licence to continue participation in this competition. This completion has also been expanded to a 14-team league.
Recent news is that Football Queensland has reviewed the application from Western Pride FC and has now offered Western Pride FC a licence which will take the competition to 15 teams. It is noted that further changes may alter the final line up of the competition structure with the recent announcement of the merger between Gold Coast Galaxy and Gold Coast Athletic now known as Gold Coast United and further appeals from Olympic FC is pending. The format of the PS4 Women’s Queensland competition is currently being finalised of the 2018 season and will be announced by FQ as they are confirmed.
Team compositions:
· Senior Women’s
· Under 17 Girls
· Under 15 Girls
· Under 13 Girls
Souths United FC provides an equitable environment with ample opportunity for players to realise their development and playing potential through its provision of excellence in participation at elite competition levels, coaching, facilities and opportunity pathways. This is further encouraged through our excellent performance and achievements by our players during the 2017 season. Here is a glimpse:
