114 years old today: The Newtown RLFC, founded on the 8th January 1908.

Happy Birthday to the Newtown Jets!

The Newtown Rugby League Football Club was founded at the Newtown Town Hall on the evening of the 8th January 1908.


Where it all began – the club’s foundation meeting was held in the assembly room of the Newtown Town Hall on the evening of the 8th January 1908. (Remastered by Steve Russo).

The streetscape of King Street, Newtown in 2017 – the very heartland of the Newtown RLFC’s modern day inner-western catchment area (Newtown RLFC).

The club’s 2022 squad will resume training this week for the NSWRL Knock-On Effect NSW Cup competition.

One surefire way you can display your allegiance to this famous old rugby league foundation club is by purchasing a 2022 Newtown Jets membership.
