Derby’s men’s senior soccer team has cause for celebration after recording its first-ever win as a club with a 4-1 victory over Fitzroy Crossing Social Soccer on Sunday.

The match was the fourth game of the year for the Derby side and only the second time the two teams had met, making the result an important moment for soccer in the local community.

The convincing victory marks a significant step forward for Derby soccer, with the senior men’s team continuing to build momentum and interest in the sport.

The club also thanked Derby District High School for allowing the team to use its facilities for the meeting and for its ongoing support of soccer in the community.

There could be more exciting times ahead, with Derby Town Oval recently receiving upgraded lighting.

Plans are being discussed for a possible final round of games later this year, potentially bringing teams from Broome and Fitzroy Crossing to Derby for a showcase under the new lights.

The proposed event is yet to be confirmed, including a date, but the club says updates will be shared through its Facebook page as details become available.

For a club continuing to grow, Sunday’s 4-1 victory was more than just a win, it was a milestone for Derby soccer and a sign of bigger things to come.
