- Manly United 0-1 Illawarra Stingrays - the team affectionately known as “pink WSW” had a successful trip to Sydney’s Northern Beaches, scoring early and holding on to their lead.
- Bankstown City 0-4 Sydney University - a good win for the Students. Bianca Galic scored, which helps Eric’s #Galic4GreenAndGold campaign, there was also a double from Kaitlyn Torpey and a goal from College Matilda Demi Koulizakis.
- North West Sydney Koalas 2-3 APIA Leichhardt - APIA led 2-0 at halftime thanks to goals from Zoe Halpin and Newcastle Jets Player of the Year Rhianna Pollicina. Koalas came racing back in the second half, levelling the scores via Tahlia Macri and NPL NSW’s version of the Road Runner, Sophie Harding. Koalas went close to winning the game but it was APIA who prevailed with an 88th minute winner from College Matilda Julia De Angelis, assisted by Grace Maher
