About Us - WACFA

Our History

Originally the Evangelical Soccer Association of Western Australia, WACFA began in 2000 with a few families wanting a soccer competition for their children that did not conflict with their commitment to attend church. They found that the vast majority of organised junior competitions in Perth, WA were run on Sunday mornings. Consequently, they saw a need to provide competitive soccer played on Saturdays and ESAWA was born. From small beginnings ESAWA grew to involve more than ten clubs and around a thousand players in its first decade. The name was changed in 2010 to the Western Australian Christian Football Association. The goals of the association remain essentially unchanged from its beginnings, but WACFA now has plans to expand its competitions and playing numbers.

Our Values

CENTRED IN CHRIST

We believe all of life is to be lived under the Lordship of Christ. Therefore, we expect high standards of player and parent conduct, a positive and encouraging culture, and a determination by all participants to maintain good relationships. To the best of our ability, and by God’s grace, everything we do will reflect our submission to Christ.

FOCUSED ON FAMILIES

We value families as the building blocks of our community and support their need for quality sport and recreation to be accessible and affordable. We will continue to structure WACFA so as to make it as fulfilling and affirming as possible for the whole family.

SUPPORTIVE OF THE CHURCH

We encourage active participation by families and individuals in the life and mission of the Church through involvement in their local church community.

COMMITTED TO GROWTH

We promote the development of every participant’s skills and abilities. Players, parents, coaches, referees and club officials are all encouraged to strive towards their personal best in all aspects of their lives, both on and off the field of play.
