As Melbourne Victory AWT

The Afghanistan women's national team were able to regroup in Australia by early 2022. They secured a partnership with A-League club Melbourne Victory enabling the team to continue operating and train at the Darebin International Sports Centre. It is unclear if they would be allowed by FIFA to play official international matches.^[1]

In March 2022, the national team was admitted into Football Victoria's state league.^[2] They were placed in State League 4 West, the seventh tier of Australian women's football and sixth in the Victorian structure.^[3]

The AWT played their first game of competitive football against ETA Buffalo at Delahey Reserve in April 2022, with the match ending in a 0-0 draw.^[4]

Jeff Hopkins, the manager of the Melbourne Victory Women's team, served as the inaugural manager of the AWT. In their inaugural season in the Victorian football league system, the AWT finished in third place, a result which saw them promoted to State League 3 East. Hopkins was succeeded as AWT manager by Jorge Leon for the 2023 State League 3 East season.^[5]

The AWT finished the 2023 State League 3 East season in second place, trailing first-placed Manningham United Blues on goal difference. The AWT achieved their second promotion in two years, after defeating Endeavour United 1-0 in the Women's State League 3 Play-Off Final.
