SYDNEY FC V NEWCASTLE UNITED JETS WIN STADIUM

Sydney FC will break new ground once again this season by becoming the first club to host a Hyundai A-League fixture in Wollongong.

The Sky Blues have announced that WIN Stadium will be the venue for their round 14 clash against the Newcastle Jets on January 3, 2015 (kick off 7.30pm).

With Allianz Stadium having its pitch re-laid, the vast south coast football community will be given the chance to witness top flight football on their doorstep for the very first time.

Sydney FC Chief Executive Officer Tony Pignata said the move represents a fantastic opportunity to showcase the club to its southern Membership and fan base, with more than 5,000 Sky Blue Members last year residing south of Allianz Stadium.

“This is a first for Sydney FC, a first for the Hyundai A-League and a first for Wollongong,” said Pignata.

“It’s another ground-breaking initiative from Sydney FC and will benefit a region which is a football heartland and a key area for us in terms of support.

“With Allianz Stadium out of action and so many Members living in Wollongong and south of our home ground, we believe WIN Stadium is the prime venue to host this match.”
