The Windsor Wolves have played in the NSWRL Jim Beam Cup since the inception of the competition in 2003, prior to this the highest level of competition for the club was in the Penrith district A-Grade competition which they last won in 1988.

The Wolves received an enormous boost in July 2007 as they signed a deal with the Penrith Panthers to act as a feeder club for them in the NSWRL Premier League for three seasons. This is a great achievement for the small club and means they will be competing in the second largest Rugby League competition in Australia.

  • The Wolves have won the Jim Beam Cup competition once, in 2005, defeating Sydney Bulls 23 - 18 in the grand final.[1]
