It was such a great day today at Cudgen Hornets JRL & this proves that the Region can work together with everyone for the benefit of our greatest game.
Thank you Tony for being part of our future & lending a helping hand

Today we want to give a very special thank you to little Tony from the Lismore Marist Brothers Jrl.

At just 6 years old, Tony stayed behind after our last game and helped clean up the grounds, filling almost half a wheelie bin with rubbish. He wasn’t asked to do it,he simply wanted to help, and that says so much about the beautiful young boy he is.

Tony’s kindness, caring nature and willingness to lend a hand touched so many people today. He reminded us that the little things can make a big difference.

After all his hard work, Tony enjoyed a few treats from the Cudgen canteen and proudly took home a Cudgen jersey, which he insisted on wearing straight away!

Thank you, Tony. We are so grateful for your help today and feel lucky to have had you as part of our Cudgen family. Keep being the amazing young man you are. 💚💛🏉✨

Unfortunately, the weather has done it again. Due to ongoing wet conditions, both Ballina and Lennox fields have been closed by Council, which means all Group 1 Taipans and Group 18 Junior Rugby League U15s and U16s Boys Cross Over Regional Games scheduled below have now been postponed.

The rescheduled date will now be Saturday 4th July at Ballina. It’s shaping up to be a fantastic day of footy, with the tackle girls crossover round also taking place. 🏉

Sorry for any inconvenience caused, however the weather is unfortunately out of everyone’s control.

Good luck to all other clubs and teams still taking the field today. Stay safe and enjoy your footy! 💪

To every rugby league mum, today we celebrate you. 🏈❤️

The sideline cheerleaders, coaches, the volunteers, the early morning drivers, the jersey washers, the snack packers, the biggest supporters and the quiet strength behind every player.

To the mums, step mums, foster mums, grandmas, aunties, fur baby mums, bonus mums and the women who love and support our kids like their own, this day is for you too.

Thank you for every lift to training, every muddy boot cleaned, every pep talk given and every moment of unconditional love.
Rugby league wouldn’t be the same without you
