Welcome to the
CFC History Project
The Claremont Football Club was initially formed as the amateur Cottesloe Football Club in 1906, and joined Second Rate Junior Football Association with the colours of a maroon jumper and black socks. They won the premiership in this grade in their first year and were promoted to the peak amateur competition, the Western Australian Football Association the following year. The club dominated the WAFA from the outset, winning premierships from 1907–1910, and were runners up to Midland Railways in 1911, who had just been relegated from the WAFL. In 1908 it beat WAFL club Subiaco in a challenge match.
