The Club welcomes anybody wanting to join and be part of a Community environment, whether as a Player, Supporter or Sponsor.

The Club was awarded the 2018 Australia Day WA Community Citizen of the Year by the City of Stirling.

Sporting clubs such as ours play a significant role in the community and have a responsibility to our members and their families.

We have chosen to join over 9000 clubs across Australia taking part in the Good Sports program.

Through Good Sports we are committed to managing alcohol responsibly and ensuring smoke free areas, which we believe will help us to provide a healthy, safe and family friendly environment.
