The Queanbeyan United Rugby League Football Club has a long, proud history in the region which dates back to the 1920s.
More commonly known as the Queanbeyan Blues, the club fields both senior and junior teams in the respective local competitions. Our junior teams participate in the Canberra District Minor Rugby League Competition, which conducts games in accordance with the safe play code, where modified rules are used for under 6s to under 12s and full international rules apply for the under 13 to under 16 age groups.
The Blues also have a proud history of juniors who have gone on to play at elite levels including Raiders, Broncos, Storm, NSW, and Australian representative Glenn Lazarus; Rugby great Matt Giteau; Raiders, Bulldogs, NSW and Australian representative and current Parramatta coach Ricky Stuart; and current Raiders player Terry Campese.
At the Blues we support the ideals of safe and fair play and our key priorities are fostering and developing rugby league within the region. We do this by providing an environment where all kids feel welcome and are taught all the skills necessary to successfully participate both as an individual and as a part of a team.
We aim to ensure all our coaching and support staff are appropriately accredited, and the club has a dedicated Coaching Coordinator to ensure the best possible coaching for players of all levels. All coaches conduct training sessions that emphasise fun and participation by all and sportsmanship, whilst teaching and enhancing skills.
At the Blues we welcome all people to the club and encourage the participation of all either on or off the field. We look forward to seeing you!!
