(Redirected from Dianella White Eagles)
Semi-pro fòotball club in Perth, Western Australia
Dianella White Eagles Soccer Club is an Australian semi-professional soccer club based in Perth. It was established by the local Serbian Australian community in 1978 as Dianella Serbia.
The team was formed in 1978 under the name of Dianella Serbia. The name was changed to the current one in the 1990s due to FFA requirements at the time. The club has had success in winning the Division 1 title in 1993. That sent the team into Western Australia's highest division for a brief stint. Since then, the club has spent its time in Division 1 and came close to winning the league in 2013 and 2017.
Club symbolism
The club's crest shows a soccer ball with a double headed eagle (the national emblem of Serbia) on a badge with the Serbian national colors of red, blue and white in the background. The club's song is called "Igrale se Delije".
Rivalries
Dianella White Eagles have a fierce rivalry with Western Knights SC and Gwelup Croatia SC.
Home ground
Dianella White Eagles' home ground is at Dianella Reserve, a public open space. The Dianella White Eagles share their ground with Little Athletics who use the ground during the summer months. The local Serbian community has built its own stand-alone clubroom next to the existing clubrooms.
