==Biography==
Stivey was born in Port Melbourne in 1881.〔(Sam Stivey ) – blueseum.org. Retrieved 8 September 2011.〕 He emigrated to the goldfields of Western Australia during the Western Australian gold rush in the late 19th century. Stivey played football for Boulder City in the Goldfields Football Association (GFA) during the 1890s and early 1900s. He was also a noted umpire, with Dave Strickland considering him "the best adjudicator of our national game with the exception of Ivo Crapp". He umpired several GFA grand finals, as well as the 1904 West Australian State Premiership, between Railways and . Stivey was at the centre of a controversy in October 1905, when, despite being considered the best umpire in the league at the time, he was passed over for the final match of the season, between Railways and Mines Rovers, in favour of another umpire, who allegedly favoured Railways during the match. Allegations were made by Mines Rovers players that "Railways had bought the premiership", although no action was taken by the league.〔("Football amenities. peep behind the scenes" ) – ''Western Argus''.

Stivey moved back to Victoria for the 1902 season, where he represented in the Victorian Football League (VFL) and Port Melbourne in the Victorian Football Association (VFA). He played two matches for Carlton, making his debut in the last round of the 1902 VFL season, against at Princes Park.〔 Stivey enlisted for active service at the beginning of the First World War in 1914, but was considered too old, and was restricted to home duties. He joined the supply section of the Medical Corps, and was made a Staff Sergeant. During the final months of the war, he was transferred to the Corps Sea Transport division, sailing to England from Sydney. On his reenlistment in 1918, Stivey's occupation was noted as masseur, and his religion Presbyterianism.〔(First World War Embarkation Roll: Samuel Tremaine Stivey ) – Australian War Memorial.

He began competing as a boxer in 1924, beginning in featherweight bouts at Uglieland carnivals and at the Unity Theatre in Perth, and later progressing to open-air bouts held at a number of different venues in Perth and Kalgoorlie. Overall, Stivey competed in 54 fights, winning 28, losing fourteen, and drawing eleven.〔(Sam Stivey ) – BoxRec. Retrieved 12 July 2012.〕
