“Geoff has done an outstanding job in leading our Ninja A-League team and ensuring a strong connection with our Wanderers Girls Academy which launched this year,” said Hudson.

“We are excited to see him continue to build on this foundation in the upcoming season.”
Western Sydney Wanderers Ninja A-League head coach Geoff Abrahams said he was grateful for the opportunity.
“I’m incredibly grateful for this opportunity, and even more so because it’s with the Wanderers – a club I know so well and a region I’m proud to be from,” said Abrahams.
“Western Sydney has a deep football culture, and I’ve seen first-hand how much passion there is for the game here. It’s an honour to lead this team and help shape the future of women’s football in our community.
“It’s also an exciting time with the growth of our Academy, which is creating clear pathways for young female footballers to develop and take the next step into professional football. We’re building something really special, and I’m looking forward to working with our young players, ensuring they have the opportunities and support to reach the highest level.
“Women’s football is growing at an incredible rate, and Western Sydney should be at the forefront of that movement. I’m excited to play a big role in helping move the game forward, developing our players, and ensuring the Wanderers continue to be a club that provides opportunities for female footballers to thrive.”
Abrahams’ extension signals the club’s continued investment in its long-term vision for women’s football, ensuring a strong pathway from Academy to senior football.
