Ford Football Ferns
New Zealand Football CEO Andrew Pragnell said:
“Hosting the finals of the FIFA Women's World Cup 2027 qualifiers, and giving fans the opportunity to support the Ford Football Ferns to return to the FIFA Women’s World Cup, is huge.
“It has been a big priority to both win the rights to host important qualifiers and major events, as well as bring our teams home as regularly as possible, and these games very much continue that trend.
“Since we emerged from Covid restrictions in 2022, we have been able to play our senior football and futsal teams at home across Auckland, Hamilton, Napier, Wellington, Christchurch, and Dunedin, with over 30 games including hosting the 2024 Olympic qualifiers and men's FIFA World Cup 2026 qualifiers.
“Hosting these games provides a perfect chance for fans to get behind the Ferns as they look to qualify for, and then perform at, the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2027.
“We look forward to delivering a showcase event, as we did earlier this year when the All Whites qualified for the FIFA World Cup 2026 for the first time in 16 years.
“2026 is going to be a huge year for football and we look forward to bringing millions of Kiwis on this journey with us.”
