The Adelaide City Women's Premier League side are one of three finalists for 'Team of the Year' in the upcoming City of Adelaide Sports Awards with the winner to be awarded on Thursday 12 May. 

An Adelaide City Women's Football Club member made the original nomination with the finalists selected by the Active City Committee from the Adelaide City Council. 

After a successful 2015 Season in the Football Federation SA Women's Premier League competition, the following submission was made to reward the club.:

Adelaide City Women's Football Club has proudly been a part of the FFSA Premier League Division for many years now. Since 2009 the team has won 5 Premier League titles, 2 Cup Finals and 6 Charity Cups. The number of titles and cups won over the years are a true reflection of the playing consistency and strong club ethos that the team demonstrates year after year.  

The team has also produced very successful individuals who have taken home their own awards. In 2015, the goal keeper was awarded the FFSA Goal Keeper Of The Year Award and in 2014 one of the Adelaide City strikers was awarded the FFSA Player Of The Year Award.  

Although individual awards are always encouraged and praised, the real strength of this team is their ability to always work as a united group and support each other through the highs and lows of the season. 

The team and the coaching staff never put an emphasis on winning games but playing the best possible football that the team is capable of. If the team plays their best football then the result will follow, and this has been evident for many years now. 

The Team of the Year award will be presented at the 2016 City of Adelaide Sports Awards on Thursday 12 May.

Football Federation SA wishes Adelaide City the best of luck on the night!
