Visit Saudi to sponsor FIFA Women's World Cup this summer (The Athletic)

FIFA announced in December 2021 that Visa would be its first “global women's football partner” and Australia's Commonwealth Bank (CommBank) has already been ...

This month, the Saudi Arabia women’s national team hosted and won a four-team friendly event in a bid to secure a FIFA women’s ranking for the first time. As well as including 32 teams and taking place in two countries for the first time, the World Cup will also have a new commercial strategy as world football’s governing body attempts to capitalise on the growing interest in the women’s game. Visit Saudi, the Gulf nation’s tourist board, is set to be unveiled as a sponsor of this summer’s FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

Amnesty criticises Fifa for allowing Visit Saudi to 'exploit' 2023 ... (SportsPro Media)

The Visit Saudi tourism board is set to sponsor the 2023 Women's World Cup as it seeks to expand its partnership portfolio.

In this context, it is difficult to see the endorsement of a major women’s soccer tournament appears as anything other than a cynical attempt to present a friendlier face overseas. Sponsoring a major Fifa event will certainly earn the country plenty of goodwill among officials, with the tournament’s location to be announced next year. Two years late, the country’s sports authorities unveiled the Saudi Women’s Premier League, the first domestic competition formed in women’s soccer. Saudi Arabia’s women’s national team was established last year, making its debut with a friendly win over Seychelles last February. The governing body has subsequently partnered with payment technology giant Visa as a global women’s soccer sponsor, while Australia’s Commonwealth Bank has also come on board as an official supporter of this summer’s Australia and New Zealand 2023 Women’s World Cup. That marketing deal would be the Saudi tourism board’s most high-profile sponsorship after the brand ambassador agreement it signed with Argentinian soccer icon

Matildas' opening 2023 Women's World Cup game against Republic ... (ABC News)

Strong demand for tickets to the Matilda's first game of the Women's World Cup sees organisers shift the match to an 80000-capacity venue.

What a huge, huge moment for that country and for women's football. "We know that there is a huge expat community in Australia from Ireland, and they also have a huge travelling fan pack, which is all the more reason for us to consider this move of stadiums and allow as many seats as possible for those fans to fill." "It's absolutely incredible that the Republic of Ireland have qualified for a Women's World Cup for the first time ever. "With this in mind, we have taken a decision that will enable over 100,000 fans to attend the opening match day, providing more opportunities for supporters to engage with the FIFA Women's World Cup as a month of football we will never forget gets underway." "It is going to be a huge day for women's football because we will also have our fan festivals up and running, with tens of thousands of people there, as well as millions of fans watching on broadcast all over the world. The Matildas will kick off their 2023 Women's World Cup campaign in front of a potential record crowd, with FIFA confirming their opening group match against the Republic of Ireland will be moved to the tournament's biggest venue, Stadium Australia.

“We want this match to set the tone for the rest of the tournament and it'll be a great start to the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023™ for the CommBank Matildas.

As we witnessed in 2022, these competitions transcend sport and really bring the Australian community together. The move from Sydney Football Stadium to Stadium Australia is big for Australian football and highlights the confidence which we have in the CommBank Matildas to draw a huge crowd for the first match of the tournament in Australia,” Johnson said. Football Australia today welcomed the announcement that Stadium Australia will host the CommBank Matildas’ opening match of the FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023™ against the Republic of Ireland on 20 July 2023.

Aussie record set to shatter as Matildas' World Cup opener moved to Stadium Australia.

It will ensure that more people can now be a part of the opening match of the CommBank Matildas at the FIFA Women’s World Cup.” As we witnessed in 2022, these competitions transcend sport and really bring the Australian community together. “This move, which Football Australia strongly advocated for, completely aligns with our positioning of the Matildas as one of our two iconic national teams and one of Australia’s most loved sporting teams. “The move from Sydney Football Stadium to Stadium Australia is big for Australian football and highlights the confidence which we have in the Matildas to draw a huge crowd for the first match of the tournament in Australia. “This is a major worldwide competition, and it really places Australia and New Zealand right at the heart and the centre of world football for a month. However, the shift to Accor Stadium, which will be known as Stadium Australia during the tournament, means up to 40,000 more football fans will get to take in the historic occasion on July 20.
