Team Wellington are one of the eight teams in the New Zealand ASB Premiership football (soccer) competition. They play their home games at Dave Farrington Park, in Miramar, Wellington.

History

Team Wellington's original home colours.

Team Wellington was formed in 2004 by a consortium of Wellington clubs to compete in the New Zealand Football Championship. The uniform was yellow with black shorts, utilising the primary sporting colours of the Wellington region.

In the inaugural season (2004/2005) of the NZFC, Team Wellington performed below expectations, finishing sixth. They improved in the next season, ending the season in fourth place.

In 2007 the Australian A-League placed a franchise in Wellington, knowns as the Wellington Phoenix. The Phoenix quickly entered a strategic alliance with Team Wellington. The new head coach for Team Wellington, Stu Jacobs, was hired as an assistant coach for the Phoenix while retaining his NZFC role. Team Wellington also changed their kit to a predominantly black strip similar to that of the Phoenix, using yellow as a highlight colour.

Team Wellington started the 2007/08 season with a five-game winning streak, a record for the competition. This was ended by a 1-1 draw against Auckland City FC on December the 15th. Wellington finished the season in third place, qualifying for the Preliminary Final against second-placed Auckland City. Wellington defeated Auckland 4-3 in overtime. Wellington thus went on to the Grand Final, in which they were defeated by Waitakere United 2-0 at Trusts Stadium.

Attendances at Newtown Park remain healthy by NZFC standards, averaging about 1000 spectators a game. Crowd numbers have been helped by the central location allowing for traveling away fans, as well as an increase of interest due to the Phoenix and the efforts of Wellington Phoenix fan club "Yellow Fever."

On 21 April 2015, Team Wellington reached the final of the 2014-15 OFC Champions League in their first appearance in the competition. They will play defending champions Auckland City in the final on 26 April, for a place in the 2015 FIFA Club World Cup.

Constituent Clubs

Team Wellington represents 20 clubs in the Greater Wellington region.

Stadium

Newtown park
Main articles: Newtown Park

Team Wellington FC until recently played all home matches at Newtown Park which has a capacity of 5,000. In 2008, a training pitch was developed next to the playing field which is used by local A-League franchise, the Wellington Phoenix.

As Newtown Park is the primary athletics stadium in the Wellington region, Team Wellington is occasionally required to relocate home fixtures to allow for track and field events to be hosted there. These matches are typically shifted to the 1,000 capacity Porirua Park in Porirua.

Recently, Wellington have switched home grounds, playing the majority of home matches at Dave Farringdon Park in Miramar.
