Wally Watts has had an affinity with the Balmain Tigers Rugby League Football Club for as long as he can remember.

He has fond memories of those early days as a kid walking through Callam Park to the hallowed turf of Leichhardt Oval to watch the mighty Tigers play. Although he preferred to play soccer Wally still remained a dedicated Tigers supporter.

Later when the Balmain Club acquired the old Latter Day Saints church in Nelson St Roselle as their clubhouse, Wally was on hand to help re-roof the old church with Balmain identities Noel Anson, Kevin Harmony and Billy Horne.

Previously the Club did not have a clubhouse to call home.
