Weston Creek Soccer Club is a sporting organisation with more than 1000 members. The club has existed for forty years, servicing Waramanga, Weston, Duffy, Holder, Rivett, Stirling, Chapman and Fisher. It will also cover the new Molonglo area, which construction will commence on shortly.
The club is run entirely by volunteers and was formed to appeal to the social and fun elements of playing football, together with promoting strong community leadership and engagement. Weston Creek teams currently compete in the ACT Federation Cup, Women's Premier League and Men's First Division competitions. We also field teams in a variety of lower grades and junior leagues.
