Richard Kreider's first publication, describes in extensive detail Western Australia's first one hundred years of the world game. It is a 204-page chronicle depicting everything that happened in WA football, from its British- backed origins in 1896 through to Perth Glory's inaugural season one century later. It also records the early days of Junior and amateur football, the women's game, regional football, administrators and the media.

"At last, the definitive study of WA soccer. A fascinating and meticulously detailed account of 100 years with all the personalities and stars. Richard Kreider deserves the utmost praise for his dedication and long hours of research, in which he has unearthed some real gems about the evolution of the world's greatest game in Western Australia"
