YOUR 2027 FOOTBALL JOURNEY COULD START AT PANTHERS! ...
❤️🤍💙 PANTHERS PRIDE | FSA FULL-TIME SQUAD SELECTIONS ⚽
We are incredibly proud to congratulate three of our talented young Panthers girls who have been selected into the Football South Australia Full-Time Programs for 2027!
This is a fantastic achievement and a reflection of the hard work, dedication and determination each of these girls has shown throughout their football journeys.
🌟 SOFIA GODOY
Sofia has been part of the Panther family since Under 9s, growing and developing through our junior girls' program before making her Senior Women's debut this season! Watching Sofia progress from a young junior player to senior football has been something special. Her hard work, commitment and dedication have certainly paid off, and we couldn't be prouder of her!
🌟 AALYAH KING
Aalyah joined the Panther family in 2022 in Under 12 Girls' and has since developed into a strong, reliable centre-back. She has been an important part of our Under 15 Girls squad this season, and it's fantastic to see her hard work, commitment and development over the years recognized with this opportunity.
🌟 SOPHIE JOHNSON
Sophie's football journey is a little different, having only played club football for the past three seasons, all with the Panthers!
Her raw talent, determination and willingness to learn have seen her earn an incredible opportunity in the FSA Under 16 Full-Time Squad. To achieve this in such a short time playing club football is something truly special!
🌟 CELEBRATING THEIR NEXT CHAPTER!
While we are incredibly sad that these three girls won't be wearing the Panthers colours in 2027, we couldn't be happier to see them taking this next step in their football journeys.
As a club, there is nothing more rewarding than watching young players develop, grow in confidence and earn opportunities to take their football to the next level.
To Sofia, Aalyah and Sophie, thank you for being part of our Panther family. We are so proud of each of you and can't wait to follow your journeys.
Congratulations girls! We wish you every success in 2027 and beyond! ...
To re-establish the South Adelaide Panthers as a leading force in South Australian football. Achieving a return to the National Premier Leagues (NPL) for both men and women. Building and sustaining YCC Tier 1 Junior Boys and Girls programs, and upholding a genuine commitment to respect, inclusivity, gender equity, community engagement, and financial sustainability.
We will deliver authentic player pathways from juniors through to seniors, built upon excellence, opportunity, equality, and accountability.
Our vision is to empower every player, coach, and member to achieve their highest potential. While ensuring the Panthers remain a club of integrity, respect, and long-term success both on and off the field.
The South Adelaide Panthers Football Club was originally established as the South Adelaide Soccer Club (SASC) in August 1996. The club was founded by a group of dedicated individuals including Perry Nash, Steve Cox, Gerry Rowling, and John Short. With the aim of creating stronger football development pathways in the southern suburbs of Adelaide.
The formation followed unsuccessful attempts to amalgamate existing southern clubs, highlighting a clear need for a structured and progressive football environment in the region.
