2017–18 Western Sydney Wanderers FC (women) season
The 2017–18 Western Sydney Wanderers FC season was the club's sixth season in the W-League, the premier competition for women's football in Australia. The season covered the period from October 2017 to February 2018.
The Wanderers appointed Richard Byrne as their head coach for the season. They played their home matches at Marconi Stadium, a change from previous seasons. The team aimed to improve upon their performance from the previous season and contend for a finals berth.
The Wanderers' squad comprised a mix of experienced W-League players and younger, emerging talents. Key players included Erica Halloway, Servet Uzunlar, and Georgia Yeoman-Dale. The club also brought in some international players to bolster their squad.
Throughout the season, the Wanderers faced challenges in maintaining consistency and securing crucial victories. They encountered stiff competition from other established W-League teams such as Canberra United, Melbourne City, and Brisbane Roar. Ultimately, the Western Sydney Wanderers finished outside of the finals positions.
The club's performance was subject to review at the conclusion of the season, with discussions likely focusing on recruitment strategies, player development, and overall team tactics for future campaigns. Post-season analysis likely included evaluating the effectiveness of the coaching staff and identifying areas for improvement in preparation for the subsequent W-League season.
