BLJFC was founded in 1977, and the founding President was Mr Ken Birrell. John Creaney Reserve was the Club’s home oval.
In 1977 the club fielded one team, an Under 12 team and the club’s first game was played on 17th April 1977 at Gairlock Oval against Applecross. The First Little League Game was played at West Perth on 22nd April 1978.
The Club played in jumpers borrowed from the Bullcreek Primary School and many of the Club’s committee meetings were held in this Primary school during the 70’s and 80’s.
In 1978 a logo competition was held and Paul and Matthew Rigby won this. The Club’s first jumper design was navy blue with a light blue sash.
In 1996 the Club changed its jumper design with navy blue, light blue and white colour scheme. The jumper design was amended in 2004 when the white area (similar to the white of the anchor on the original Fremantle Dockers jumper) was widened and Navy blue was added to the bottom.

(SUNG TO THE TUNE OF ADELAIDE CROWS CLUB ANTHEM)
We’re the mighty Bullcreek Leeming
We’re the team through thick and thin
We will fight and fight for victory
We will fight and always win
When we play the opposition
We’ll show them how it’s done
We’re the mighty Bullcreek Leeming
We’re the team that’s number one
