Some Famous People called David Christy

David Christy

David "Dolly" Christy (3 July 1869 – 2 July 1919) was an Australian rules footballer in the West Australian Football League (WAFL).

Christy was a highly successful ruckman and centre half-forward who was one of the founders of football in Western Australia. He began his career with Ballarat, and crossed to Melbourne in the VFA, playing there from 1891 until 1896.

He became a driving force in establishing football in Western Australia, playing sixteen of his twenty-six seasons there. He played with Fremantle and with Imperials, and upon the latter club's dissolution, was a co-founder of East Fremantle Football Club in 1898.

His career total of 345 matches in elite football remained a record until broken by Polly Farmer in 1971, while his twenty-six career seasons and ten career premierships (equal with Alfred "Topsy" Waldron) are records for elite Australian rules football as of 2020; given the nature of the modern game, these records are highly unlikely to ever be broken.

In 1996, Christy was inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame, and in 2004 he was inducted to the WA Football Hall of Fame.
