A Barwon Heads Football Club was in existence as early as the 1920s, when it competed in the Freshwater Creek District Football Association. After the second world war the club amalgamated with Ocean Grove, and did not go it alone again until 1970. The following year saw Barwon Heads join with eight other clubs to form the Bellarine Football League.
The Seagulls enjoyed an exceptional early time in their new surroundings, claiming a hat trick of senior flags from 1972 to 1974, but then faded. A fourth and, to date, last flag finally arrived in 1993. Interestingly, all but one of Barwon Heads' BFL premierships was achieved at the expense of its former merger partner, Ocean Grove.
