Barnawartha’s glory days were the first half of the 1920s when the side contested four grand finals for three wins. The Tigers also fielded strong teams during the 1950s, finishing second in 1953 and 1954 and downing Lavington in the grand final of 1956. All these achievements occurred in the Chiltern and District Football Association with which the club was affiliated until 1958, when it transferred to the Tallangatta and District Football League, where it has remained to this day. The Tigers only senior grade TDFL flag was claimed in 2002 by means of a resounding 21.17 (143) to 9.9 (63) grand final defeat of Tallangatta Valley. Recent performances have been more modest, although the side did manage to qualify for the finals in three out of the last four seasons with a highest finishing position of third in 2007.
