West Australian Football Hall of Fame

The West Australian Football Hall of Fame was created in 2002 to recognize and enshrine those who have made a significant contribution to Australian rules football in Western Australia. People eligible for inclusion are players, coaches, umpires, administrators and media representatives.

The inductees are chosen under guidelines which have been established by the West Australian Football Commission and in 2003 a Hall of Fame Selection Committee was made. The first induction into the Hall of Fame took place on the 21st of March 2004.

Those with the most significant contribution to West Australian football are elevated to 'Legend Status' and are listed below in bold. Currently there are 11 legends.
