History
In the 2008 A-League Grand Final, the Newcastle Jets prevailed over their opponents, the Central Coast Mariners, by a score of 1-0 to claim their first ever championship in the competition. First participating in the AFC Champions League in 2009, Newcastle advanced all the way to the round of 16 in that competition.
After the club’s owner, Nathan Tinkler, placed the organization into voluntary administration in May of 2015, the license of Newcastle Football Club was withdrawn by the FFA. For the 2015–16 season of the Australian Football League (A-League), a new team with the same name and colors was established.
McDonald Jones Stadium serves as the venue for all of the club’s home games. In addition to competing in the National Young League, an affiliated youth squad also takes part in the National Premier Leagues NSW competition. The W-League features the participation of at least one women’s team.
The No. 2 Sportsground and the Wanderers Oval are the venues that host the matches for the Youth team. Both the Newcastle International Sports Centre and No. 2 Sportsground are used for games involving the women’s team.
