About West Perth Football Club inc
The West Perth Football Club is the oldest of the WAFL clubs, having been formed, originally as “The Victorians”, on 2nd May 1885.
For a large portion of the 20th century, the club was based at the historic Leederville Oval. The club had a strong link with the local ethnic community during these years, with many of its supporters hailing from European backgrounds. It was through these ties that the club and all associated with it developed the nickname “The Garlic Munchers”, a name the club still holds dear as a tribute to the strong multi-cultural roots from which the club evolved.
In 1994, the Falcons made the bold move to relocate north of Perth to Joondalup. Since venturing to Joondalup, the club has held strong to the belief that being an integral part of the development of our aligned communities was a key to the long term sustainability of the club. We believe that by being a cultural icon for our aligned districts, retaining and respecting our history, the club will continue to be a significant and prominent part of WA’s sporting landscape.
