[edit] Brief history

In 1961 the Great Northern Football Association, the Port Pirie Football Association and the Whyalla Football League merged to form the Spencer Gulf Football League. The twelve founding clubs were Central Augusta, Central Whyalla, North Whyalla, Port, Proprietary, Risdon, Solomontown, South Augusta, South Whyalla, West Augusta, West Whyalla and Willsden. The four Whyalla based clubs left the Spencer Gulf Football League at the end of season 1966, leaving 8 teams from Port Augusta and Port Pirie. The league reverted to 7 teams in 1992 when Proprietary and Risdon amalgamated to form Pirie Lions.

After the 2006 season, the Quorn-Willsden Wolves folded due to financial woes.
