The club relocated to Arena Joondalup in 1995, marking a shift toward semi-professional competition, and underwent a name change to ECU Joondalup Soccer Club in 1999 to reflect its ties to the local campus. Meanwhile, Northern Redbacks originated in 1991 as Morley Windmills, an all-female club focused on grassroots development in 's northern suburbs. It rebranded to Stirling Vasto and then Stirling Reds in following a relocation to Rickman Delawney Reserve in Balcatta, before adopting the Northern Redbacks name in 2003 after merging with Sorrento FC's women's teams to broaden its regional appeal.
