Recently, 70 teams across New South Wales and Queensland took part in the Under Armour Sydney FC Cup 2025.
Hosted at Sydney FC’s Centre of Excellence – Sky Park, and Macquarie University Sports Fields, the tournament provided an exhilarating four days of competitive football action for Junior Development League (JDL) teams, across multiple age group, in both girls and mixed competitions.
The 5th edition of the Sydney FC Cup welcomed Under Amour as the naming rights partner, who provided top of the line prizes for tournament winners, and MVPs including bags, beanies & more. The tournament offered a Girls JDL Competition, which included U10/11 & U12/13 competitions, and a JDL competition, hosting U11 & U12 teams, across a Cup, Shield and Plate competition structure.
Congratulations to Northern Tigers FC whose teams put on strong performances across the girls and mixed competitions, winning both the U12/13 GJDL Cup, and the U11 JDL Cup.
Logan Lightning, one of the many interstate teams that attended the Cup this year, won the U12 JDL Cup, while Apia Leichardt FC took out the U10/11 GJDL Cup!

Mitchell McAsey, Sydney FC’s Coach Development & Tournaments Officer was so pleased with how the event turned out across the four days of competition.
“The Under Armour Sydney FC Cup 2025 was a record-breaking year for the tournament, hosting more teams, games, activations, and professional sponsors than ever before.
“It was such a positive environment across all four days of action and we would like to thank all players, coaches, parents, volunteers and referees for contributing to this, and we hope that many lasting memories were made” he continued.
Sydney FC would also like to acknowledge the Northern Suburbs Referee Association and Northwest Sydney Referee Association for providing official Referees for the tournament, who did an excellent job of managing the games.
Eastern Suburbs Football Association Technical Director Jaime Gomez also heralded the tournament.
“Thank you and the team at Sydney FC for a great Sydney FC Cup for both the Mixed and Girls.
“All our teams had a great time and we are looking forward to next year.”
Palm Beach Soccer Club’s Female Football Coordinator also echoed similar sentiments.
“On behalf of Palm Beach Soccer Club Female Program, we wanted to share our thanks for the opportunity for our two groups of players in our Under 12/13 age group to attend the recent Sydney FC Cup.
“It was a great experience for players, coaches and parents on football, the opportunities and experiences (life and football) that can be achieved through taking yourself out of your local club environment and attending events of this nature.”
