The 2026 respective teams that will contest the various Tursa Employment & Training ANZAC Day Cup & Callan McMillan Memorial Shield Finals over the ANZAC Day weekend, are now confirmed.
The ANZAC Day Cup holds great tradition and prestige within the region, with the Men’s Premier League trophy first contested in 1950. The Callan McMillan Memorial Shield recognises the contribution of the late Callan McMillan Jnr, who along with his late father, also named Callan, but affectionately remembered as ‘Pa’, were each pioneers of local women’s football.
The schedule for the respective finals is outlined below and we highlight the scheduling of the Callan McMillan Memorial Shield as being the marquee final on Anzac Day.
