The Newcastle Jets are delighted to announce the signing of talented defender Ava Piazza for the next two seasons.
Piazza joins from Canberra United where she spent the 2023/24 A-League season.
Piazza has also previously been selected for Young Matildas training camps.
The defender is excited for the move to Newcastle.
“I’m incredibly thrilled to be working under Ryan and very excited for the season ahead. I can’t wait to meet all my new teammates for the new season to begin. It’s exciting to be joining this Club and seeing the support they received last season I can’t wait to play in front of the fans here in Newcastle.”
Newcastle Jets Head Coach Ryan Campbell said.
“Ava is another young player who demonstrates a lot of the the characteristics that we are looking for. She has experience playing in the A-League Women’s competition and has also spent time training with overseas Clubs throughout the break.
Her striking of the ball is a key strength of hers which is something that is important in order to play the possession based game that we are looking to implement. I am looking forward to seeing how much Ava improves in our training environment as well as potentially playing next to a player like Tash Prior.”
