2026 NSWRL Major Competitions

The New South Wales Rugby League (NSWRL) will administer several major competitions during the 2026 season. These will include tiered open-age competitions across metropolitan and regional New South Wales, as well as a suite of age-based pathway competitions for both male and female players. Along with the Queensland Rugby League, these competitions form a key part of the pathway into the National Rugby League (NRL) and NRLW.
