From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fremantle Croatia H.N.K Soccer Club is an Australian football (soccer) club from the city of Fremantle, Western Australia. It is a Croatian backed club. It currently competes in the Western Australian Amateur League Division 2. The club is a regular participant in the Australian-Croatian Soccer Tournament. Fremantle Croatia claimed second position in the Australian-Croatian soccer tournament in 2007 held in Perth losing out to Sydney's FC Ljubuski in the final 1-0.
The club president is Stipo Sestan and the games record holder for the club is veteran Blazan Billy Babic.
The club also has a tight-knit, loyal and ever growing fan base often known as the "Purple Dragons" ("Ljubicasti Zmajevi") although the name has no significance with regards to the club colours or name. The club's theme song is "Boze daj" (literally translates to: "God permit") which was coined recently on the eve of the club's quarterfinal appearance at the 2007 Australian-Croatian soccer tournament.
