National Schoolgirl Cup

The National Schoolgirl Cup was introduced in 2022, due to the growth and successes of the 9 a side competitions, the Karyn Murphy Cup and Katrina Fanning Cup, in QLD and NSW respectively. This 13 a side format is a National competition, for Open aged girls, which begins in your respective states and builds to a National final. This competition is targeted at schools who have established Rugby League Programs, for the open age group. School teams participating in the 2024 National Schoolgirl Cup will be asked to submit a squad list. These players will not be able to participate in the open age division of the Karyn Murphy Cup, however your school can enter a second (or third etc.) team into the Karyn Murphy Cup open age division.
