Hall of Fame
Training Match Hero
- Sindre Paulsen (21317155)
- The first player bought after Gamstian began their "Norwegian players only" philosophy. Sindre has never complained about lack of opportunities in the first team, but has been a good servant in Brønnøy League and friendly matches. Now working as a spokesman at the club and the first inductee to the Hall of Fame.
Massimo Manzo (55962422)
- Coached the club for six seasons between 2005 and 2007 and has been heavily involved in developing Yves Schupp og Marcus Forsskog into superstars. He has also seen through the progress of three former U-21 national players Odd Eklund, Rafiq Rzayev og Ahmed Aziz. Now the Liam Brady of Gamstian, leading the youth academy.
Member of Honour
- Steinar Nilsen (17150329)
- The boss of Tromsø IL. At least for now.
- Anders Hafsås (39632803)
- One of the original Gamstian players. Stayed in the team for many seasons before turning pro in Sweden. However, after a couple of seasons there, he was bought back to his beloved Gamstian. In total he played 77 games for the club, scoring 38 goals in the progress. Most memorable was during season 13, where he became the club's top scorer with eight goals during the title winning season.
