From creating history at the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup, to achieving pay parity with the Socceroos, and securing the rights to jointly host the Women’s World Cup in 2023 - this list represents just how far we’ve come since inaugural Matildas captain Connie Byrnes donned the armband in 1978.
As a nation, we have revelled with the side when they’ve won and supported them when they’ve encountered off-field dramas, which included the unsavoury pay strike, the controversial sacking of coach Alen Stajcic and crashing out of France 2019 in the round of 16.

26 of the 2020-21 W-League season’s best performers assembled in Sydney on Tuesday for the first day of a Women’s Talent Identification Camp organised by Football Australia to provide a potential pathway to the Matildas for domestically based talent.
Unable to be selected for the national team’s recent training camp in the Netherlands and friendlies against Germany and the Dutch, the four-day bivouac looms as one of the best, and last, opportunities for domestically-based players to break into Australia s 18-player squad for the coming Olympic Games.
Matildas boss Tony Gustavsson not able to attend in person, assistant coach Andreatta has taken charge of proceedings - the former Brisbane Roar boss also having overseen the first Talent ID camp staged back in November - and has been encouraged by the early signs on display.
