For the first time in six years Kuwarna will play all its AFLW home games at the one venue, with the League having confirmed the 2026 fixture.
Kuwarna will kick off its 12-game campaign by hosting Sydney at Unley’s Thomas Farms Oval on Sunday, August 16 at 2.05pm, followed by the Club’s first away game the next Sunday taking on Carlton at Ikon Park.
Headlining the Club’s fixture are six games being played at Unley Oval, including a Saturday afternoon Indigenous Round match against Waalitj Marawar in Round Three, along with the following:
- A Saturday night clash with Yartapuulti in Showdown 5 in Round Eight at Alberton Oval
- A home Saturday afternoon Pride Round game against Gold Coast in Round 10
- Playing in Hobart for the first time since 2020, taking on North Melbourne in Round 11
Kuwarna CEO Tim Silvers said it was pleasing to see the League deliver on the Club’s priority request of playing all home games at Unley’s Thomas Farms Oval.
“We think that oval is really accessible and provides a great family-friendly experience, and only having one home venue this season provides a level of consistency,” Silvers said.
“Our players and coaches enjoy playing there as well and we have never lost at the ground so let’s hope that trend continues during the upcoming season.
“Overall the fixture is a good one for us, with the team getting sufficient rest and breaks between games.”
During the season, Kuwarna will travel interstate on five occasions; to Melbourne three times - including in Round Four to play Hawthorn at the Hawks’ new home ground in Dingley - along with trips to both Brisbane and Hobart.
The Club will round out its 11th AFLW season with a Sunday afternoon clash against fellow inaugural team, Narrm.
