State Teams (Women's)
1974-1979
The 1970s were a golden era for the State women’s team. The Black Swans placed second at their first National Championship in 1974 then twelve months later went one better when crowned national Champions.
In late 1977, the State team undertook a seven-game tour of Malaysia and Singapore. A second national Champions title headed west in 1978 when the Black Swans returned from Newcastle without loss.

1977 Tour of Malaysia and Singapore
The State team embarked on a historic seven-game tour of Malaysia and Singapore just six years after the formation of the Western Australian Women’s Soccer Association.
Coach Peter Dimopoulos, who had liaised direct with the Malaysian Women’s Football Association to organise the trip, assembled a squad of 16 players in August.
The Black Swans were rarely troubled in winning their six games in Malaysia, amassing 34 goals while conceding only once. On the way home they were held to a scoreless draw by the Singapore national team.
The tour heralded a golden era for women’s football in Western Australia. The following year the State team won the National Championship, from which seven players gained selection for Australia at the 1978 Women’s World Invitation Tournament in Taiwan.
