[edit] History

  • Rugby league has been played in the South Coast region of New South Wales since 1913, with the first competition taking place between teams from the Shellharbour district.
  • In May 1914, with other rugby clubs from across the region also splitting from rugby union to join the new code, the South Coast Rugby League was formed. The first season of what is now known as the Group 7 competition began on 30 May that year.
