elected our first honorary Life Member in 1891

1901 The secretary received the following letter from TH, Willett J.P. "As first secretary of the Gawler South Football Club allow me to congratulate your club on its position this year, I have always watched though its years since I left. I still follow the old game… When I went to Port Augusta I played there, and at Port Pirie I was secretary of the Association. You will remember I was also secretary of the Gawler Association. Now I am secretary of the Franklin Harbour Association and the Cowell club. I have umpired in several of the matches and played in a few, so you see I am still interested in the game. I don't see many of the old boys' names. I see names of players in your team who were children when I was at Gawler. and to see our Cowell boys (some married men) with the blue and white up always reminds me of the Gawler Souths".
