Gymea United FC – Proud to be Part of the Shire Premier League
Gymea United FC is proud to be part of the Sutherland Shire Football Association’s Shire Premier League (SPL), providing a high level of football competition for both men and women right here in the Sutherland Shire.
As one of Australia’s largest football clubs, Gymea United is proud to offer football opportunities for players of all ages and abilities. We are a family-focused, friendly and inclusive club that believes everyone should have the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful game – whether they are taking their first steps onto the football field or aspiring to play at the highest level.
The Shire Premier League was established by the Sutherland Shire Football Association to provide a high quality local competition and an important pathway for talented players to progress from grassroots and junior football into senior football, without having to look outside the Shire for a high level of competition. SSFA describes the SPL as providing elite-quality football for local players, forming an important part of the football pathway within the Sutherland Shire.
Gymea United is proud to be represented in both the Shire Premier League Men’s (SPLM) and Shire Premier League Women’s (SPLW) competitions. This gives our players the opportunity to compete at a high level while continuing to represent their local club, community and the Gymea United family.
Shire Premier League Men’s
The Shire Premier League Men’s competition is the highest level of senior football within the SSFA club competition structure and features some of the best footballers and clubs in the Sutherland Shire.
Gymea United’s Men’s Premier League program consists of a Premier League First Grade (PLM) squad and a Premier League Reserve Grade (PLR) squad, providing players with a strong competitive environment and opportunities to develop and progress within the program.
The First Grade and Reserve Grade teams play at the same venue, with Reserve Grade taking to the field before First Grade, creating a great match day experience for players, families and supporters.
The Premier League program also provides an important pathway for talented local players to progress into senior football, while giving experienced players the opportunity to continue competing at a high level within their local community.
Shire Premier League Women’s
Gymea United is equally proud of its Shire Premier League Women’s (SPLW) program and its contribution to the growth and development of women’s football in the Sutherland Shire.
The SPLW provides women with the opportunity to compete in a highly competitive senior competition while representing their local club. It also forms an important part of the pathway for female players looking to progress from junior and community football into higher-level senior competition.
At Gymea United, we are committed to continuing to grow opportunities for girls and women and to providing a pathway where players can develop their skills, challenge themselves and play football at the highest level possible within their local community.
More Than Just Football
For Gymea United, the Shire Premier League is about more than winning games. It is about creating opportunities, developing players, supporting women’s and men’s football, and strengthening the pathway from junior football through to senior competition.
We are incredibly proud to have our Men’s and Women’s teams competing in the Shire Premier League and representing Gymea United FC, our members and the wider Sutherland Shire football community.
Come along, support our teams and be part of the Gymea United family!
