Their Patron, Joseph Ward had been the Prime Minister of New Zealand from 1906 to 1912. In the early part of the season the Sunnyside club applied to have their auditor, W.A. Knox's disqualification from 2 seasons earlier lifted. Knox however said he had not himself applied to have the disqualification lifted “nor did he intend to do so”. The club trained on Saturday afternoons in the preseason and had 25 new playing members with the newly formed 5th grade competition said to be bringing in many of them. The committee set their club fees at 1 shilling per year for those players. Once again they were training and playing at the Devonport Domain and they had “acquired” a shed/clubroom “for training purposes”. They set Thursday night as a “compulsory training night, and due preference will be given, when selecting teams to those members who attend regularly”. In their opening round of matches on May 12 one of their forwards, C. Wheeler, broke his hand during a match. During the season the majority of the Sunnyside 3rd grade B team enlisted in the war effort and so their remaining players transferred to their A side. It was reported in mid July that the Sunnyside 4th grade side had secured a 1 point lead in their competition and had scored 137 points while only conceding 15. They ultimately went on to win the championship and on October 16 a photograph of the side was published in the Observer newspaper. Their record was also reported with 11 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss from 13 games, scoring 215 points and conceding 36. The 4th grade championship winning team was N.M. Robertson, H.M. Ansenne, J.J. Bolger, Arthur
