The first step in that process is an intra-club match this Friday night to take place at Joondalup's HBF Arena.

FALCONS STRENGTHEN SQUAD WITH SIGNING OF KEITEL

Thursday, February 12, 2015 - 5:39 PM - by Chris Pike

THE West Perth Football Club wishes to announce that it has further strengthened its playing stocks for the 2015 McDonald's WAFL Premiership season with the signing of exciting youngster Tyler Keitel.

Over the past three seasons, Keitel has played 37 colts matches with East Perth with the strongly built key position player averaging almost 15 possessions and five marks a game.

The 19-year-old has the potential to further add to West Perth's options up forward this season having kicked 38 goals in 15 colts matches in 2014, and 39 in 18 games in 2013. But he has also shown an equally ability to play key defensive roles as well.

FALCONS CONFIDENT NEW PRE-SEASON APPROACH WILL HAVE LONG-TERM BENEFITS

Wednesday, February 4, 2015 - 2:05 PM - by CHRIS PIKE

WEST Perth chief executive David Crute is confident that a new later start to pre-season will pay dividends for the Falcons later in 2015 with the 2013 premiers backing in their young talent topped up only by a handful of recruits who are training the house down.

Coming off a 2014 season where West Perth narrowly missed playing in the finals to defend their premiership but had a jam packed schedule with three Foxtel Cup matches taking the place of their byes, the Falcons had a thorough review of their football department before the 2015 pre-season.

There have been off-field changes with the restructuring of the football department with Ward Harris taking over as football operations manager while Casey Haw is on board as football operations coordinator, Jessica Eddy as football operations administrator and senior coach Bill Monaghan will have an increased role in the club's district and schools.

WEST PERTH-CONTRACTED BRADLEY JOINS CLAREMONT

Tuesday, January 20, 2015 - 2:52 PM - by Chris Pike

THE West Perth Football Club is disappointed to announce that 2003 premiership player Kepler Bradley has accepted a player development role with the Claremont Football Club meaning his agreed upon return to the Falcons will not be happening.

Claremont offered Bradley a full-time position in its football department that he accepted despite being contracted to the Falcons.

The 2003 WAFL premiership player and 117-game AFL veteran with Essendon and Fremantle had signed on to return to his original club West Perth for the 2015 and 2016 seasons.  His acceptance of a full-time position at Claremont has changed that.

HARRIS AND TOMPSITT ARE FALCONS' NEWEST LIFE MEMBERS

Saturday, December 20, 2014 - 12:18 PM - by SEAN COWAN

WEST Perth premiership hero Darren Harris struggled to hold back the tears as he accepted life membership of the club at Wednesday night’s Annual General Meeting.

Harris fell short of the 150 league games required for him to be automatically awarded life membership during his memorable career with the Falcons, which stretched from 1992-1996 and saw him win a premiership medal, a Simpson Medal and a Breckler Medal.

But his successful return to the club as a premiership-winning coach in the early 2000s and his ongoing recruitment and promotional work led premiership team-mate Steve Trewhella to nominate him for life membership this year.
