Football West is excited to announce it has secured a naming rights partner for the men’s State League.
The competition will be known as the Keystart State League from the start of the 2027 season.
The partnership will cover the following leagues and events:
- State League Night Series
- State League Division One First Team, Reserves and U18
- State League Division Two First Team, Reserves and U18
- State League Awards
Football West’s three-year partnership with Keystart also includes naming rights for Junior and Senior Country Week, the annual carnival for regional soccer associations which takes place in Perth during the September school holiday.
From this year it will be known as Keystart Country Week.
Keystart Chief Executive Officer Mark Tomasz said: “At Keystart, we’re committed to making the dream of an affordable home a reality for more Western Australians and opening the door to home ownership across WA’s suburbs and towns.
“We are proud to partner with Football West and support local grassroots football, opening up new opportunities for Keystart to talk to Western Australians about how we can support their home ownership dream.”
Football West CEO Jamie Harnwell said: “Football West is delighted to partner with such a well-established initiative as Keystart, which has provided almost four decades of valuable assistance to WA home-buyers.
“It is fantastic to have this backing for the State League and Country Week for the next three years. These are exciting times for grassroots football in WA.”
WHAT IS KEYSTART?
Keystart is a WA Government initiative which has supported more than 126,000 West Australians into a home of their own since 1989.
Through its low-deposit and shared-equity home loans, Keystart is making the dream of an affordable home a reality for more West Australians.
Keystart is not a bank and is not profit-driven. It works hand-in-hand across government, industry and the community to bring down barriers to home ownership and help more West Australians into an affordable home.
