As the GDFNL continues to preserve and celebrate 150 years of local football history, we are calling on the Geelong community to help complete an important piece of the puzzle.
After extensive research through archives, newspapers, clubs and local families, photographs have now been located for the majority of the league’s known presidents dating back to the 19th century.
However, nine presidents remain without a photograph.
If you recognise one of the names below, are a descendant or know someone who may have a photograph tucked away in a family collection, we would love to hear from you.
- John Smerdon - 1879–1880
- Alan Griggs - 1881–1883
- H. Stoneham - 1884–1887
- Cr Alfred Sayers - 1905–1909
- Cr John R. Coxon - 1922–1924
- Alfred H. Langdon - 1929–1933
- Bert Mason - 1935–1938
