💙 A SEASON TO BE PROUD OF 💙
Our Men’s Premier League season came to an end this afternoon, going down 1–0 to Abercrombie in a fiercely contested elimination semi-final.
The past four weeks have been brutal on this squad, with a string of season-ending injuries testing our depth at exactly the wrong end of the year.
But today, the boys took to the field with a tenacity for the ages.
They battled for every ball, backed each other and refused to go away. There were certainly moments throughout the match that didn’t fall our way and ultimately had an impact on the contest, but the boys kept fighting until the final whistle.
The scoreboard says 1–0. It certainly doesn’t tell the whole story.
After making our club’s return to the Men’s Premier League competition in 2025, this group has continued to build, compete and show that Bathurst 75 belongs in this space.
Today closes the book on our 2026 campaign, but there is plenty to be proud of in what this squad has achieved across the season.
To Nikko, the players and everyone behind the scenes who kept this squad going through a challenging final stretch, thank you.
Heads high, lads. You left everything out there. 💙🤍
2026 done. We’ll be back.

💙 THE 4THS MARCH ON! 💙
Our Ray White Bathurst Women’s 4ths, led by Karen Johns, took on CSU this morning in their elimination semi-final, and the girls certainly got the memo about setting the scene early!
Historically, they’ve been a bit of a second-half squad... but today they flipped the script. 😏
A strong opening half saw the girls head into the break with a 3–0 lead, and from there it was about staying composed, structured and working for each other.
CSU kept coming and managed to pull one back late, but our girls held firm to secure a 3–1 win and keep their finals campaign alive. 💪
There were strong performances right across the park, with structured support through the midfield, a solid defensive effort and plenty of work being done for each other. And a special mention has to go to rookie Eden Carter, who found the back of the net three times to bag herself a finals hat-trick. 🎩⚽
FULL TIME | BATHURST 75 3 – CSU 1
Our defending 2025 premiers aren’t done yet...💙🤍⚽

💙 PROUD OF OUR U16s 💙
It wasn’t the result our U16s were hoping for yesterday, but there is plenty for this group to hold their heads high about.
After a storm delayed kick-off, the boys finally got their elimination final underway and what followed was an incredibly tight contest. At 2–2 at full time, the match headed into extra time and it really could have been anyone’s game.
The boys continued to battle right to the end, with the deciding goal coming with just 90 seconds remaining in extra time.
They played with heart, determination and plenty of 75’s spirit right until the final whistle. 💙⚽
For a number of these boys, yesterday was another chapter in a journey that has seen them wear the 75’s blue for more than 10 years. Growing from some of our littlest footballers into young men representing the club in a finals match is something pretty special, and something our club is incredibly proud of.
We also want to give a very special acknowledgement to their manager, Emma Robinson
With the team not having a consistent coach throughout the season, Emma stepped well beyond the usual role of team manager. She took on extra responsibility at training and on game days, keeping the boys organised, supported and, most importantly, keeping them together and playing football.
That commitment behind the scenes doesn’t always get seen, but it certainly hasn’t gone unnoticed. Thank you, Emma. 💙
To our U16s, congratulations on your finals appearance and on the fight you showed yesterday. The scoreboard might not have fallen your way, but you represented Bathurst 75 with heart, resilience and pride.
Well done, boys. We’re proud of you. 💙🤍

🔥 ELIMINATION FINALS. THREE TEAMS. ONE JOB. WIN & STAY ALIVE. 🔥
Finals football has arrived, and three Bathurst ’75 FC teams are putting their seasons on the line this weekend. 💙⚽
🔵 U16s | Saturday 5 September | 3:00pm
Our U16s take on Lithgow Workies Redbacks in a do-or-die clash.
This squad brings together our 15s and 16s, with some players who have worn the blue since their mini-football days alongside some fresh faces who have quickly become part of the ’75 family.
They’ll need to dig deep, back each other and leave everything out there to keep their season rolling.
🔵 Women’s 4th Grade | Sunday 6th September | 9:00am
The defending 2025 Premiers aren’t ready to hand over the crown just yet. 👑
Our W4s face CSU knowing only a win will take them through to the next round. They’ve fought their way back into finals football and now it’s time to see just how far they can go.
🔵 Men’s Premier League | Sunday 6th September | 3:00pm
It’s a rematch with Abercrombie after the two sides met in the final regular-season round last weekend, but this time there’s no next week guaranteed.
A run of season-ending injuries has tested the depth of the squad, so the boys will be drawing on the entire ’75 arsenal as they fight to keep their finals campaign alive. 💪
Three teams. Three elimination finals.
Survive. Advance. Repeat.
Get behind the Blues this weekend and make some noise! 💙🤍

2026 Western Premier League

28/08/2026

🏆 GRAND FINAL READY. 💙
Since our return to the WPL competition in 2022, the Blues have been a dominant force, adding another two titles to an already proud history.
We are Eight-time Champions.
This Saturday, we go hunting for number nine. 🏆
Led by Mark Comerford, the boys have put in the work, earned their place in the top regional league and are absolutely belting to get out there.
There’s plenty of history behind this jersey, but there’s still another chapter to write.
One game. One goal. One more trophy up for grabs.
💙 Get behind the boys. Get loud. Bring on the Grand Final.
LET’S GO 75! 🔵⚪️🏆

⚽️ THE LITTLE BLUES ARE TAKING OVER HALF TIME! 💙
This Saturday’s WPL Grand Final isn’t just about the big lads…
At half time, we’re handing the field over to our U7 ALL-STARS 🌟
We’ve assembled the best of the best seven-year-olds for a mini match that promises big energy, serious enthusiasm and probably no regard for positional structure. 😂
And because apparently an U7 half-time exhibition match requires an elite coaching panel, they’ll be led by club stalwart Graeme Ross alongside Country NSW Boys Coach Bruce Grassick.
A little OTT for U7s? Perhaps.
But just look at the skills development opportunities at play here. 👀⚽️
So while our big lads take a well-earned half-time break, make plenty of noise for some of our littlest Blues as they take centre stage.
💙 Future stars. Right now.

Our Mini’s are proudly supported by
Raine&Horne Bathurst
