Adding another layer to the occasion is the remarkable story surrounding Wellington Head Coach, Bev Priestman. In her first season back in football following a one-year FIFA suspension after the Paris Olympics, Priestman has guided the Phoenix to unprecedented heights, leading the club to its maiden Grand Final appearance and to the brink of a historic first Championship.
What began as a fresh start for Priestman in Wellington has quickly become one of the most compelling stories in football this season, with the Phoenix now one win away from completing an extraordinary rise.
With history on the line for both clubs, the Grand Final promises a high-quality showdown between two sides that have defined the 2026 season.
