HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY! We're so proud to celebrate the many women - past, present, and future - who make RL the best sport in the world. We've come such a long way, and we're going from strength to strength. 2025 looks set to be a massive year!

Check out this article from Rugby Leaguer on March 19th 1991 declaring a 'Boom Time For Women' in rugby league! It's amazing to see such strong support for women's rugby league during those early days, and without that support the game wouldn't be booming bigger than ever now!

Really impressed with the way Swinton Lions RLFC are promoting the Women’s game. I really think Women’s Rugby League can achieve great things in the UK. It’s been invaluable to the NRL and I reckon it can have the same impact on the Rugby Football League
