About Us
Pacific Coast Rugby League was born out of a passion to deliver a structured, safe and welcoming environment where rugby league players are encouraged to thrive and grow, where supporters can share their love of the game and where all children, teenagers, and adults can play the sport they love for generations to come.
We are a family of hard working teammates who have drawn on over 50 years experience in the game to bring our vision of Rugby League to the West Coast! On these pages, you can find out more about Rugby League from the grassroots through to the elite level – and the role of the Pacific Coast Rugby League in administering the sport for our region and in full alignment with the National Governing Body, USARL.
We're passionate about this sport and we hope that you'll join us on this journey.
Thank you for considering us, and we hope to see you soon!
