The excitement is already building as the NSWTA Country Championships are set to return to Mudgee, New South Wales, on October 18-19, 2025.
After the event’s resounding success in 2023, Mudgee and its iconic Glen Willow Regional Stadium will once again play host to the best talent from across the state. The Championship, which celebrates the very best of country Touch Football, will showcase our best regional affiliate teams and talent, solidifying its position as one of the most prestigious events in the NSWTA calendar.
The 2023 Country Championships were a highlight in the history of the competition. Hosted for the first time in Mudgee, the event saw increased participation, thrilling matches, and overwhelming community support. The combination of world-class facilities, passionate “touchies”, and the high standard of play ensured that 2023 was a monumental year for the competition. Spectators and players alike enjoyed an atmosphere that was both electric and family-friendly, with the picturesque surroundings of Mudgee only adding to the experience.
In 2024, the venue’s mystique and charm as a haven for Touch Football was showcased with the Junior Regionals event, which showcased not only the young talent from across New South Wales but also the venue’s practical application for major Touch Football tournaments.
The return of the NSWTA Country Championships to Glen Willow Regional Stadium is expected to build on this momentum further. The venue’s state-of-the-art facilities, lauded in 2023 for their ability to accommodate our participants and their families while offering outstanding player amenities, will once again play a central role in making the event a resounding success.
Dean Russell, the NSWTA General Manager, expressed his excitement about the event returning to such a significant venue.
“We are thrilled to return the NSWTA Country Championships to Mudgee in 2025. Glen Willow Regional Stadium proved to be the perfect location in 2023, and it’s wonderful to see that the event’s success has resonated with players, coaches, and referees alike. Mudgee’s passionate community and the quality of facilities make it one of the standout venues for the competition. We look forward to another fantastic weekend of Touch Football and to once again showcase the incredible talent from across the state.”
The 2025 NSWTA Country Championships promises to be another weekend of unforgettable Touch Football, with the best talent from regional New South Wales coming together to compete at the highest level. For players, it’s a chance to test their skills against the best.
The 2023 event set the bar high, and with Mudgee welcoming the championships back in 2025, it’s safe to say that the NSWTA Country Championships will continue to be a key highlight in the Touch Football calendar for years to come.
