Squads
The A-League All Stars Women squad will consist of 19 players, with a mandatory two goalkeepers, and be selected by coaching staff. Alex Chidiac and Hannah Wilkinson were announced on 23 April 2024 as the first two players to be selected in the squad as voted by fans. On 26 April, Joe Montemurro was announced as head coach, with Kat Smith and Emily Husband as assistant coaches, and Melissa Maizels appointed as goalkeeping coach.

The All Stars Women squad was announced on 9 May. Of the 19 players selected, five were part of the Australian squad in the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup, and four from Sydney FC that won the Grand Final on 4 May. Arsenal announced their 19-player squad on 20 May with Australian internationals Steph Catley, Kyra Cooney-Cross and Caitlin Foord included. The referee for the match was Casey Reibelt. Emma Kocbek and Maggie Price were named as assistant referees with Georgia Ghirardello as the fourth official.

Criticism
After the announcement of Montemurro, Lisa De Vanna criticised the decision to select a coach not employed in the A-League Women, suggesting that it is an "insult to all the coaches who have put in the effort and remained loyal" in Australia. Former Central Coast Mariners player Daniel McBreen supported this notion, stating that an A-League Women coach should have been "honoured" with the role.
