A-League to Morshead Park

BALLARAT Regional Soccer Facility at Morshead Park will host its first ever A-League Men match.

The contest between Western United and Wellington Phoenix will be played on Saturday, 9 April from 2.05pm

“United has built a strong relationship with the Ballarat community through games at Mars Stadium across all three of its seasons so far, but the opportunity for Ballarat fans to enjoy the match at a fit-for-purpose, football-specific venue will generate great excitement as United continues its journey towards the end of the regular season,” a Western United spokesperson said.

“The additional fixture means the Green and Black will play back-to-back games in Ballarat, returning to Mars Stadium to face Central Coast Mariners on Saturday April 2. Kick-off has been brought forward and is now set for 2.05pm.

“With the full fixture list set out, Western United will look to carry its strong season to date into the final matches in search of silverware and a place in the finals.”

Western United will play four more matches before their home-and-away fixture concludes against Adelaide United on Sunday, 8 May.
