ALL ABOUT US

about us

The Eastern Raptors Rugby League Club was founded in 2011 as a junior rugby league club, catering to boys and girls aged 5 to 18 years of age, participating in the NRL Victoria rugby league and girl's league tag competitions. A senior men’s (over 18 years) team took to the field in 2018 for the first time, followed in 2019 by our inaugural senior women's side. 

In 2019 we fielded 9 junior sides, including our first all-female team in the newly formed Under 13 girls grade, and senior men and women's sides. This is our largest showing to date, and one we are hoping to eclipse in season 2020. 

 

As a Touch Football Australia affiliate, we are now entering our third season of mixed social summer touch football competition. This caters to all experience and fitness levels 

  Teamed with modern equipment, trained coaches, qualified trainers, a dedicated Committee, passionate volunteers, and the amazing support of family and friends, the Eastern Raptors is a unique club offering a variety of programs and incentives all year round. Keep up-to-date with regular news and events via our Facebook and Twitter pages, visit our webpage to learn more about our club and services or pop down to the Raptor Cave during training nights for a run or cuppa! 

The Eastern Raptors Rugby League Club strives to be a strong, sustainable and community focused club for all members of the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria. We are proud to be an accredited ‘Good Sports Club’, providing a positive, safe environment which encourages people of all ages regardless of gender and physical ability to participate, learn and have fun playing rugby league, tag and/or touch football.
