A Night to Celebrate the 2025 South West Football Season

The South West football community gathered on Saturday, October 11 at Mantra Lighthouse Bunbury to celebrate another outstanding year of local football at the annual SWSA Season Wind Up.

Players, coaches, referees, and volunteers from across the region came together to reflect on the 2025 season — a year that showcased the best of local competition, community spirit, and growth within the game.

Celebrating Excellence On and Off the Field

It was a night of well-deserved recognition for the clubs and individuals who made 2025 one to remember.

Bunbury Dynamos capped off a remarkable year, claiming the Men’s Premier League title as well as both the Club Excellence Award and Fair Play Award — a testament to their success both on and off the pitch.

Dalyellup Park Rangers continued to dominate in the women’s competition, taking out top place in the Women’s Premier League as well multiple Men's cup victories.

Football Margaret River made history with a hat trick of cup victories, taking home the Women's Charity Shield, Pioneer Cup & SWSA Cup.

Collie Power SC impressed across the lower divisions, securing league wins in both Men’s Division 1 and Women’s Reserves, while Football Margaret River and Bunbury United SC also featured strongly in finals and cup performances.
