Brief history

The County Of Way Football Association was formed in 1909, with founding clubs including Charra, Denial Bay, Goode, Koonibba, Murat and Penong. Fowlers Bay also wished to join the league but was denied entry due to excessive travel distance. In 1948 the league changed its name to Murat Bay Football League changed and then Far West Football League in 1962. The Koonibba Roosters are the oldest continuing Aboriginal football club in Australia, having named their Team of the Century in 2009. The West Coast Hawks of Streaky Bay and Wirrulla club joined the league in March 2021, after the Mid West Football League was wound up permanently. Around the same time, the Far West Football League changed its name to the Western Eyre Football League.
