Premier Dominic Perrottet says kids aged 12 years and under, who are registered to play football, will be able to access the discounted tickets with an accompanying adult or concession ticket purchase.
“This is an exciting era in Australian women’s football and it’s great our sports-loving kids can witness world-class action right here in NSW,” Mr Perrottet said.
“The NSW Government will work with Football Australia to ensure this event is Covid-safe and families can enjoy a great atmosphere watching some of the best players in the world.”
Football Australia CEO James Johnson said providing an occasion for the next generation of footballers to see their heroes live was essential for the game’s future.
“These players are not only some of the best in the world at what they do on the pitch, but are also an inspiration off the pitch as well,” Mr Johnson said.
Stadium Australia will host the USA on Australian soil for the first time in 21 years on Saturday, November 27, with the return matchup in Newcastle on Tuesday, November 30.
