History

Originally formed and we shared Valletta Road’s Collins Reserve with Fulham Amateurs at the time.

Throughout 1986, we were at Brighton for one season.

Merged with Brighton for one season, under the banner of Brighton.

Seniors played under the Brighton banner not Woodville City.

First year as Woodville City Junior Soccer Club.

Roadblocks in 1988 due to youth progressions—no platform to proceed to senior levels.

The new Woodville City Soccer Club returned back to Collins Reserve towards the end of 1989.

During this season, U15s highest team available

Juniors were stationed here for 1 year (1991) before moving to Sunningdale Reserve for another singular year.

Woodville City moved to Salesian College.

Due to the inclusion of an U23 side, we began playing at the Veneto Club.

Throughout the early years of the 1990s, there was significant growth in junior program with 100+ kids for junior development (5-9 years old).

Still at Veneto Club

Commissioned body in 1995

Pat told by the Federation that we would not be able to join the State League if at Veneto Club.

We began to make moves for senior squads.

Officially became Western Strikers Soccer Club at point of entry for full-fledged State League status.
