From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Perth Glory Football Club is an Australian professional soccer club based in Perth, Western Australia. The club played its first competitive match in October 1996, in the first round of the 1996–97 National Soccer League. They have played at their current home ground, Perth Oval, since their foundation in 1995. Perth is one of the three A-League clubs to survive the demise of the National Soccer League, the previous top division in Australian soccer. The club was implemented into the inaugural A-League season in 2005, and has since participated in every A-League Men season.

Bernd Stange was Perth's first manager to win a major piece of silverware, the 1999–2000 premiership

The current manager is David Zdrilic, who took over from Alen Stajcic on 28 June 2024. Glory's most successful manager is Mich d'Avray, who won two premierships and two championships during his three-season tenure.[1][2]
