We have improved significantly in a variety of areas, from individual performances, to unit execution, team strategy and its application. We know where we sit, and the level we need to achieve if we are to be in finals contention in 2018. You cannot enhance growth without experience and it is in this area that we have arguably made the most tangible gains in 2017.

The Foundation is a dream come true for me. I made my debut with the West Coast Eagles in Round 5 of the 1996 AFL Season, at the age of 16 years, and played in the 2006 premiership team. My first passion isn’t sport however, its community work in helping to improve the lives of young Indigenous Australians. But using sport as a magnet to attract our young Aboriginal people into positive activities to improve their education and wellbeing is an amazing tool that must be utilised.

  • Focus on Falcons
    Quote for the week. “You don't always get what you wish for; you get what you work for”. Let’s go Fever, Let’s go! West Coast Fever hopes all supporters will help break the record for a crowd at an ANZ Championship netball game when West Coast Fever meets the Melbourne Vixens at the state of the art Perth Arena this Saturday, April 27. They want to hear a loud and proud Fever crowd at the Arena as they try to break the current record of 8,478 fans at an ANZ Championship game. That record was set back in Round 12, 2010 at Hisense Arena when the Vixens took on the Adelaide Thunderbirds. They want to gather the biggest netball crowd in Perth since 2011 when the Australian Diamonds played an international fixture against arch-rivals New Zealand at Burswood Dome in 2011. That crowd was 6768 and they believe they can better that this Saturday. (Courtesy of the Netball WA website) On Tuesday 23rd all of the Falcons teams played at The Arena Joondalup Scores for the Games were; WC Falcons 18U 18 vs. Coastal Sharks 46 WC Falcons Reserves 54 vs. Coastal Sharks 40 WC Falcons League 50 vs. Coastal Sharks 71 Come along and support the West Coast Falcon League Team as they play at the Arena Joondalup against the Lions on Tuesday 30th April at 7.20pm (Reserves and 18U have a bye).
