Football NSW has confirmed sanctions have been issued to Newcastle Jets, Sydney Olympic FC and Western Sydney Wanderers (WSW) for compliance breaches of the 2025 application process.

While the majority of Clubs completed their requirements within the specified time frame, regrettably some Clubs did not. Potential penalties for non compliance were communicated to all Clubs in advance which ranged from fines to the loss of Premiership Points and/or Club Championship points.

Football NSW has imposed the following sanctions for non compliance on three clubs:

Western Sydney Wanderers FC

  • 3 Premiership Points across each of the Men’s Age Grades
  • 15 Boys’ Youth League Club Championship Points

Sydney Olympic FC

  • 15 Women’s Club Championship Points
  • 3 Premiership Points across each of the Girls’ Youth age grades
  • 3 Premiership Points across each of the Men’s age grades
  • 15 Boys’ Youth Club Championship Points

Newcastle Jets FC

  • 15 Women’s Club Championship Points
  • 3 Premiership Points across each of the Girls’ Youth age grades
  • 3 Premiership Points across each of the Men’s age grades
  • 15 Boys’ Youth Club Championship Points

Premiership and Championship Points deductions have been reflected in the relevant tables in the Match Centre on the Football NSW website.

The 2025 application process supports clubs to improve their governance and operations.  By meeting the requirements of the process, it helps protect clubs, their players and other stakeholders.

The process allows Football NSW to continue to strengthen the administration of clubs competing in our competitions and identify areas where Football NSW can provide further support.
