Run by the Football Federation Australia (FFA) the annual A-League season runs from late October through until early May the following year. The league was founded in 2004 ahead of the first season in 2005/06 following on from the now defunct National Soccer League (NSL).
There were 12 A-League teams in the competition for the last time in the 2023-24 season with eleven from Australia and one New Zealand-based club.
The A-League underwent an expansion to 13 teams in 2024–25 with the addition of Auckland with two New Zealand clubs now in the competition.
Teams face off over a 29-round regular season leading up to the finals series with Macarthur FC previously the newest team in the comp after making their A-League season debut for the 2020-21 season.
Auckland FC joins the league from 2024-25.
For the 2020/21 A-League season there were only 22 weeks of play and byes for clubs during the regular season draw were abolished.
There was a mid-season break in the 2022/23 A-League Men season from November 18, 2022 to December 8, 2022 due to the 2022 FIFA World Cup being held in Qatar.
The current 2024/25 A-League season is known as the Isuzu UTE A-League due to sponsorship.
The 2024/25 Isuzu UTE A-League Men season will be extended to 29 rounds to accommodate the addition of a second New Zealand team. Each club will play 24 home and away fixtures, along with two additional matches (Unite Round and one other match), and three bye weeks.
