Isuzu UTE Australia (IUA) is proud to kick off another exciting season of the Isuzu UTE A-League Men’s and Ninja A-League Women’s competitions, as its partnership with the Australian Professional Leagues (APL) enters its fifth consecutive year.
The 2025–26 Isuzu UTE A-League Men’s regular season will commence on Friday, 17 October 2025, with the Grand Final scheduled for the weekend of 22–24 May 2026. The Ninja A-League Women’s competition follows two weeks later, beginning on Friday, 31 October 2025, and culminating in its Grand Final on the weekend of 15–17 May 2026.
With an ever-growing community of fans and players, this season promises to deliver another showcase of world-class football talent. From rising stars to established heroes, the leagues will feature many of Australia’s CommBank Matildas, CommBank Socceroos, and international representatives, adding star power and intensity to every match.
In the Ninja A-League Women’s 2025–26 season, clubs will contest a 22-round regular season, with each team playing 20 home-and-away fixtures and two bye rounds. The Finals Series will begin on the weekend of 24–26 April, with the Grand Final to be held on 15–17 May 2026.
The fixture has been designed to deliver more family-friendly match times, fewer simultaneous kick-offs, and an increase in standalone fixtures, creating unique matchday experiences and bringing fans closer to their heroes.
For the Isuzu UTE A-League Men, fans can expect fierce rivalries and blockbuster clashes throughout the opening rounds, including the Melbourne Derby and the traditional Australia Day Big Blue, setting the stage for what promises to be another thrilling and highly competitive season.
As the Official Automotive Partner for both the men’s and women’s leagues, Isuzu UTE Australia continues to drive the growth of football across the country, supporting clubs, communities and fans from the grassroots to the professional level. Providing support both on and off the field, IUA will continue to supply vehicle support for the A-Leagues and clubs across the nation.
IUA’s Managing Director, Mr Junta Matsui, said the brand is proud to continue backing Australia’s top-tier football leagues for a fifth season.
“Isuzu UTE Australia is honoured to once again partner with the A-Leagues as the excitement builds for another incredible season of football,” Mr Matsui said.
“Over the past four years, our partnership has grown alongside the leagues themselves, supporting the players, the clubs and the passionate fans who make this sport so special. We look forward to another thrilling season ahead.”
APL Executive Chairman, Mr Stephen Conroy, echoed the sentiment:
“The A-Leagues are excited for another outstanding season of football and would like to thank Isuzu UTE for their ongoing partnership. Their continued support of both our leagues and football communities across Australia helps us strengthen the game from grassroots through to the elite level,” he said.
