  • W-League TV Viewership Up
    Article No. 8468 Available on www.roymorgan.com Link to Roy Morgan Profiles Tuesday, 21 July 2020 W-League grows TV viewership as Australia & NZ awarded hosting rights for 2023 Women’s World Cup New research from Roy Morgan shows the W-League’s TV viewership is growing even as other Soccer competitions experienced viewership declines. A record high 879,000 Australians watch the W-League on TV, up 265,000 (+43%) on a year ago. In what represents a huge boost to the Women’s game in this part of the world Australia and New Zealand were recently awarded joint hosting rights for the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup – the largest Women’s sporting competition in the world. The 2023 edition will be the first to welcome 32 countries to E compete, a significant increase on the 24 that competed in France in 2019. However, the W-League’s TV viewership growth was not enough to make up for the declines in viewership for the FIFA World Cup, English Premier League, A-League and other forms of Soccer compared to a year ago. Now 4,098,000 Australians watch any of the listed Soccer competitions, down from 4,577,000 a year ago – a drop of 479,000 (-10%). The FIFA World Cup is easily the most popular Soccer competition on Australian TV with 3,391,000 viewers, although this is down 471,000 (-12%) on a year ago. The next FIFA Men’s World Cup is due to be held in Qatar in 2022 with the FIFA Women’s World Cup following a year after in Australia.

From this championship the NSW Combined High Schools State teams to compete in the NSW All Schools Tournament during June will be announced for fixtures against Combined Catholic Colleges and Combined Independent Schools. This event also serves as the trials for this year’s National Championships which will be held in Victoria during August. We look forward to some wonderful football with the challenge for all teams to step up to the quality football we saw from last year’s champions, Sydney West who narrowly accounted for Sydney North in the final.
