Circular Head Football Club is an Australian rules football team that plays in the North West Football League, as the Circular Head Saints, based in the town of Smithton. Known throughout most of its history as the Smithton Saints, the club competed in the North West Football Union in two different stints, from 1949 to 1951 and then 1980 to 1986, then in the NWFL since 1987. It adopted the colours and nickname of Greater Western Sydney, becoming the Circular Head Giants from 2015 to 2019. In February 2019, the club went into recess due to a lack of player numbers, and folded in October of that year.[1][2] It then reformed, and rejoined the NWFL from 2022, now adopting the name Circular Head Saints.[3]
