Founded in 2004 and staging its inaugural season in 2005–06, the league is contested by by seven teams covering Australia's major cities and regional centres, as well as one representing New Zealand. The team which finishes on top of the league table at the end of the 21-round regular season is awarded the Premiership, with the winner of the subsequent four-team finals series awarded the Championship. The current Premiers are the Melbourne Victory, who won their first title in the 2006–07 season, whilst Sydney FC are the reigning Champions.
