WELCOME TO THE ARTIFICIAL A-LEAGUE...


THE management game based on A-LEAGUE players.
Join a league, buy a squad. If your players score in the A-League, they score for your team.
If your goalie (or enough defenders) keep a clean sheet, you save a goal.

Just sign up, it's easy! Then create a team and join an online league...

NEWS:

2026/27 SEASON DETAILS

The timeline for the new AA-LEAGUE season:

  • Now: New managers can sign up already, and create a team (though they won't be placed in a league until September)
  • 14 September:
    • Teams are added to their leagues for this season, depending on last season's position (or in the case of new teams, the order of team registration)
    • Auction dates are set in all leagues
  • 15 September: Australian transfer window closes
  • 15-20 September: AA-League player list updated for 2026/27. Players positions are set according to their last 20 club matches on Transfermarkt.com. Once a player's position is set for the season, it will not change
  • Mid-late September: Managers notified of their league's auction details
  • Late September / early October: Online auctions (Oz Superleague divisions) commence
  • 10-11 October: Pro League auctions take place in Sydney
  • 12-16 October: Online auctions close, in time for round 1
  • Friday 16 October: Round 1 of the A-League (and AA-LEAGUE!) begins
  • After Friday 16 October: New teams can still join throughout the season, but will be given spots in existing leagues, if any available

INACTIVE TEAMS FROM LAST SEASON:
We will be removing teams who haven't been very active for 2026/27, so leagues are expected to be more competitive, and we also might see some teams promoted by two divisions.

You will be contacted via email before the pre-season auctions begin in September/October.
If your team hasn't been active this 2025/26 season, feel free to email us (address at the bottom of THIS PAGE) and let us know you're in! Then you'll definitely keep your spot.
