Mitre, the UK sports equipment company, has signed on as the official match ball supplier for A-Leagues, the organizing body of the top-tier competitions of Australian men’s and women’s soccer.

Through a tie-up announced earlier today, Mitre will supply the match balls for the men’s and women’s A-Leagues across the 2024-25, 2025-26, and 2026-27 seasons. In addition, there will be special-edition match balls for the Final Series of both those competitions.

The initial range of Mitre match balls will launch in August, “available to purchase at leading sporting retailers around Australia.”

Elsewhere in Mitre’s soccer properties portfolio, the brand most prominently has a deal with England’s Football Association, through 2026-27.

The A-Leagues, meanwhile, also include Isuzu Ute (men’s league title partner), Liberty (women’s league title sponsor), McDonald’s, and IHG, amongst their commercial partners.

The men’s A-League will run between October 18 and May 31, with the women’s competition to take place from November 13 to May 18.
