Central Coast Mariners fans have something to cheer about after an encouraging weekend for both the men’s and women’s teams.
The men’s side secured a vital 3-1 win against Western Sydney Wanderers at Parramatta Stadium on Friday, January 17, while the women held their own in a hard-fought nil-all draw against Sydney FC on Sunday, January 19.
The results have sparked optimism among the Mariners faithful, who are eagerly anticipating the double-header at Industree Group Stadium in Gosford on Saturday, February 1.

Before that, however, both teams face crucial matches this weekend against Wellington Phoenix.
The men will travel to New Zealand for a challenging away fixture in the windy city on Saturday, while the women will host Wellington at Woy Woy Oval on Sunday.
