24.01.2022 For all those who have been a part of our clubs history, this is an event not to miss. Come and share your memories with many of those supporters who were supporting you when you were out there too!

21.01.2022 It may have taken us a few years, and a few very close attempts at getting there, but after 30 years in existence, we finally made it to the top And when we made it to the top, we did it in style, winning the three trophies in one year. 20 Years years ago this year the Western Knights won the league by 5 points before storming to a 3-0 win in the Major Grand Final over Sorrento. That added to the West Ham Cup also won that year.... Ronnie Campbell and Willie Kellys team in 1998 started a phenomenal period for the Knights, with the next dozen or so years seeing the Knights as one of the real powerhouses in WA soccer, winning every trophy on offer and finishing in the top parts of the ladder consistently. A great year 1998 was!

07.01.2022 So many quality players in just one Mel Moffat West Australian article When North Perth Croatia played Floreat Athena in a Top 4 Preliminary Final, we were victorious in an extra time thriller 3-2, with Ivica Markovic scoring a superb hat trick. On the field however were some big names in WA Soccer, big then and even still remembered well today. Names like Marinovi RL, Taki Nicolaidis, Vlado Beretovac, Vince Matassa, Willy McNally, Bobby Despotovski, Dean Nicolaou and Terry ...Nicolaou. And while they were some great players, some will still swear back and blue that NP Croatias #5 was the best of the lot! Good times, and great memories #knights50 #50yearsUknighted

06.01.2022 In 1979, Croatia NP hosted the 6th Annual CSA Australia Savez Australian-Croatian Soccer Tournament here in Perth. 14 teams from around Australia took part, including two NP teams. We even had our own Miss Croatia! The winning team that year was Sydney United 58 FC (Sydney Croatia). North Perth Croatia went onto win the tournament the year after in Tasmania, our first and only time to win it!... These days the Australian Croatian Soccer tournament draws in almost 60 teams throughout Australia and New Zealand, including Womens and Mens Masters teams, making it the largest tournament of its kind in Australia. Do you recognise the players (and Miss Croatia) from these photos?
