The Central Coast Mariners defeated the Newcastle Jets 3-1 on July 10 at Central Coast Stadium with goals from two midfield strikes and a late header.

These outcomes arrive during the 2026 World Cup quarterfinal window, where several local players hold national squad ties and club schedules shift around international windows.

Matches unfolded at Central Coast Stadium on Dane Drive and at the upgraded fields along The Entrance Road, where the Central Coast Rugby League ran its under-20 program and recorded a 24-18 win for the Gosford Bulls over the Wyong Roos.

Gate receipts reached $87,000 across the two venues, with an average ticket price of $28 and 3,100 season passes scanned at entry.

Weekend soccer action

Central Coast FC reserves posted a 2-0 shutout against the Sydney Olympic youth side at Bluett Park, holding possession at 58 percent and converting both chances from set pieces in the 34th and 67th minutes.
