The Draw for the Round of 32 will take place on Wednesday, 25 June 2025 at 7.30pm AEST, hosted by Jake Barker-Daish and Jerome Khalaf from the Suited and Booted Podcast. This event will determine the matchups for Round of 32 and officially launch the Final Rounds.

With semi-professional and community clubs pitted against Australia’s top-tier sides, the Hahn Australia Cup once again sets the stage for thrilling ‘cupsets’ and unforgettable moments right across the country.

Eleven sides from the Isuzu UTE A-League Men competition will participate in the tournament, with the top nine automatically advancing into the Hahn Australia Cup 2025 at the completion of the 2024/25 regular season, while Perth Glory FC and Wellington Phoenix FC won their respective Playoff matches in May.

The remaining 21 clubs come from a wide range of communities across Football Australia’s nine State and Territory Member Federations.
