The Perth Glory FC, also known as the Perth Glory Women, represents the Perth Glory in the W-League, the top division women's football (soccer) league in Australia. The team was established in 2008, with the founding of the new league.
The Sam Kerr Football Centre is a soccer facility serving as the headquarters for Football West. It is named after Western Australian-born Sam Kerr, honouring her soccer success and her contribution to professional and grassroots soccer.
In May 2019, Liberal-National Coalition Prime Minister Scott Morrison pledged $16.25 million towards a State Football Centre at Maniana Reserve, Queens Park, Cannington. This figure was matched by Labor's WA Premier Mark McGowan in 2020, which meant construction of the State Football Centre could go ahead. It was completed in mid-2023, in time for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup. The centre was officially opened in October 2023 and was named the Sam Kerr Football Centre.
The centre features two full size grass playing pitches and three five-a-side synthetic playing pitches on a 16-hectare (40-acre) site, along with function, office and meeting spaces. The main competition pitch has a two-storey grandstand with seats for 700 spectators, with the capability of hosting up to 4,000 with additional temporary seating.
