Club rugby league is enjoying strong growth with the national club rugby league participation rate up 13 percent on this time last year and just 6.5 percent off passing last year's national total.
With interest and support around the NRL’s newest club surging, Dolphins halfback Sean O’Sullivan has seen first-hand the growth of rugby league from a grassroots level across Queensland., equating to about 8000 more registered participants compared to the corresponding period in 2022, with the figures nationally worth celebrating as well. The national club rugby league participation rate is up 13 percent on this time last year and just 6.5 percent off passing last year’s national total.
“I think there are important life lessons that you learn as a young kid when you play with mates, it teaches you some great values for later on and it taught myself and my family, some great lessons. “It's from not only the players, it's officials, it's volunteers, parents who all commit their time to this sport.“In terms of numbers, just to demonstrate how strongly our game is growing and our current strength, we are currently over 170,000 registered participants, that's up 14% from the same time last year.
As has been the case for a number of seasons now, the rise of female participation was a key factor in the growth of the game across the nation.
