In 2023, we will play co-host to the biggest women's sporting event in the world.
The FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia-New Zealand 2023™ will be a historic event on multiple levels. It is the first edition in the Southern Hemisphere, the first to be co-hosted by two confederations [AFC and OFC], and the first to feature 32 teams.
