Canberra United’s A-League Women Future Secured as New Ownership Eyes Men’s Team Entry by 2028/29
Canberra United, the two-time A-League Women champions, has secured its future under new ownership with the Australian Sports Group (ASG). This acquisition resolves two years of uncertainty for the club, which was previously the only standalone women’s team in the A-Leagues.
ASG now holds an exclusive option to introduce an A-League Men’s side for Canberra in the 2028/29 season, aiming for a fully integrated professional club. This development marks a significant step for football in the Australian capital, bringing stability and growth prospects to the region’s passionate football community.
