Wilfred Hugh Waller (born 27 July 1877) was a South African amateur football goalkeeper who played for various British clubs around the turn of the 20th century, including a period with Bolton Wanderers where he became the first South African player to appear in the Football League.
He remained in England and was invited on a tour of Germany as a member of a British "FA XI" which played four matches in five days at the end of November.
His first appearance for Southampton came in the opening match of the season as the "Saints" regular goalkeeper, the England international Jack Robinson, was serving a one-match suspension.
Southampton won the match 5–0 (with a hat-trick from Alf Milward) on their way to taking the Southern League title for the fourth year out of five.
[6] After spells with Watford and Aylesbury United, Waller returned to South Africa with his family in April 1903.
