About Northern Territory Rugby Union

The Northern Territory (NT) Rugby Union is the state administrative body for Rugby in the NT, responsible for managing the development and running of the game. We are here to support the growth of this great game throughout the Territory. The Darwin Club Competition is the longest running in the NT, commencing in 1976. There are six senior clubs who contest First and Reserve Grade competitions with a developing Women's division and seven Junior Age Divisions. The Darwin Junior and Senior competitions are played between October and March each year. The Central Australian Rugby Union administers a four team competition based in Alice Springs with matches played between October and March at ANZAC Oval. The First Central Australian Club Competition commenced in 1986. The Katherine Rugby Union administers the competition in Katherine with matches played between October and March on Friday nights. Men’s and women’s divisions are contested. The first Katherine Club Rugby Competition commenced in 1988. The East Arnhem Rugby Union (EARU) is based in Nhulunbuy on the Gove Peninsula. It is a small organisation based in a very remote part of Australia, but is at the forefront of rugby union’s efforts to involve Aboriginal people. The Yolngu people of East Arnhem Land have adapted well to Australian Rules football. Now that talent is being seen in rugby union. EARU participates in a number of rugby sevens competitions around Australia and in Singapore.
