Cockburn City Soccer Club is thought to be oldest sporting association in the City of Cockburn. Soccer in Cockburn is strongly identified with New Australian communities. Both Spearwood Dalmatinac and Cockburn City have strong social significance for former players, administrators, support workers, and supporters of these teams.
Cockburn City Soccer Club and Spearwood Dalmatinac are popular sporting clubs with grounds located on Hamilton Road. Although they have separate training grounds, Cockburn City play their State Premier League games at Spearwood Dalmatinac’s ground. Beale Park is also home to the Cockburn City Teeball & Baseball Club.
Cockburn City Soccer Club’s origin goes back to 1929 when they were known as Spearwood Rovers. This club split into two clubs in the early 1960s to become ‘Spearwood Dalmatinacs’ and ‘Cockburn United’. The two clubs enjoyed success in the period after, with facilities close to each other at Dalmatinac Park and Beale Park, both of which are still used today for Junior and Senior teams. The clubs reunited in 1998 under the negotiations of Angelko Petkovich and John Mijacika and became the Cockburn City Soccer Club of today.
