Macarthur Saints JRLFC

OUR NEXT CHAPTER STARTS NOW.

Macarthur Saints has a proud history.

The second photo is a reminder of where we’ve come from. Senior Rugby League has always been part of the Saints story, and now we’re exploring the opportunity to bring it back in 2027.

As a Junior Rugby League club, we’ve worked hard to build a place where kids can develop, make lifelong friendships and enjoy the game. Now we want to create a pathway that allows our players to continue representing Macarthur Saints into senior football, rather than having to move to another club after U16s.

Right now, we’re asking one simple question…

If Macarthur Saints entered a Seniors competition in 2027, would you be interested?

Whether you’re:
• A current or former Saints player
• Looking for a new club
• Returning to rugby league after some time away
• Interested in coaching, managing or volunteering
• Keen to help build something special from the ground up

We want to hear from you.

This is an Expression of Interest only. Your response will help us determine whether we have the numbers and support to establish Senior Rugby League at Macarthur Saints in 2027.

The next chapter won’t write itself. Built by the community. Driven by the players.💙💛

💙🩷WHY THIS MATTERS TO THE FUTURE OF SAINTS GIRLS💙🩷

Yesterday, some of you may have noticed a lot of pink around the grounds.

Our girls up at the canteen were proudly wearing our new Saints girls uniform to help promote something that’s become incredibly important to me.

This isn’t just a post from the Secretary of Macarthur Saints.

It’s a post from a Mum.

For Marley, rugby league didn’t begin when she first pulled on a Saints jersey.

It began in 2016, when she was just 2 years old sitting in a pram on the sidelines watching her big brother play. Week after week, she grew up at Saints. She watched, she learned, she celebrated, and she fell in love with the game long before she ever played it herself.

When she finally ran onto the field in the Under 8s, it wasn’t the start of her rugby league journey—it was the next chapter of one that had already begun years earlier.

Now she’s getting older, and for the first time, we’re facing the possibility that she may have to leave the club she’s grown up in simply to continue playing rugby league.

As her mum, that’s heartbreaking.

Not because another club wouldn’t welcome her, but because Saints is home. It’s where her journey began, where she’s made lifelong friendships and where she wants to keep playing.

As Secretary, I have the privilege of helping shape the future of this club. But I can’t create girls teams on my own.

I need to know there are other families out there who want the same opportunity for their daughters.

If you’ve got a daughter who’s interested in playing rugby league—whether she’s never played before or she’s already involved—we’d love to hear from you.

Our 2027 Expression of Interest is now open. Completing it doesn’t commit you to registering. It simply helps us understand whether we can build girls teams and create a pathway for girls to continue wearing the Saints colours.

If we want to make this happen, we need to know you’re out there.

🚨 IMPORTANT – ZERO TOLERANCE FOR MELEE INVOLVEMENT & CROWD INVASION 🚨

As a club, the safety of our players, volunteers, referees and spectators will always come first.

Please take the time to read the NSW Rugby League Melee Escalation & Associated Crowd Invasion Policy below.

From this weekend onwards, our club will be strictly enforcing this policy. There will be no exceptions.

A reminder to everyone:

- If a fight or altercation starts, DO NOT get involved.
- Players, coaches, trainers and managers must stay out and allow the referee and match officials to manage the situation.
- Parents and spectators must never enter the field of play.
- Even if your intentions are to help or separate players, entering the incident is still considered a breach under the policy.

Please be aware that breaches can result in:
• Individual suspensions
• Team stand-downs
• Competition point deductions
• Club fines and other sanctions

These penalties don’t just affect the individuals involved—they can impact the entire team and our club.

We ask all players, officials, parents and supporters to lead by example, respect match officials and demonstrate good sportsmanship at every game.

Let’s work together to create a safe, respectful and enjoyable environment for everyone involved in our game.

If a fight starts… STAY BACK. STAY OUT. LET THE REFEREE HANDLE IT.

💙💛Thank you for your cooperation and for helping protect our players, our volunteers and the reputation of our club.

💙💛 HELP SHAPE THE FUTURE OF THE SAINTS! 💙💛

As we begin planning for the 2027 season, we’re inviting current, former and prospective players and families to complete our 2027 Expression of Interest (EOI).

The past 12 months have seen an exciting new chapter for Macarthur Saints JRLFC. With a fresh new look, a growing club culture, stronger community connections and a renewed focus on providing a positive environment for our players and families, we’re looking ahead to what comes next.

As part of that planning, we’re seeking Expressions of Interest to help us determine what teams can be formed in 2027, including opportunities for:

🏉 Junior Rugby League Teams
🏉 Girls Rugby League Teams
🏉 Future Senior Pathways
🏉 Coaching & Volunteer Roles

This is not a registration form and does not commit you to playing next season. It simply helps us understand community interest and plan for the future.

Whether you’re a current Saint, a former Saint, or considering joining our club for the first time, we’d love to hear from you.

👉 Complete the EOI here: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/r/NuHzyZv3Rv?origin=lprLink

📌 Please complete one form per player.

Together, we’re not just building teams—we’re building the future of Saints.
