Football Australia Chief Executive Officer, James Johnson, emphasised the importance of creating more touch points for Australian football fans to connect with the Socceroos and Westfield Matildas as a significant year of international football activity commences for both teams.

“Principle XI of the XI Principles for the future of Australian football highlights Football Australia’s intent to further enhance the strong reputations of our national teams and transform them into uniquely iconic brands,” Johnson said. “Discovering and implementing fresh and increasingly innovative digital solutions to engage supporters and keep them connected with our national teams is an important part of that process.”
