Queensland Wheelchair Rugby League

Queensland Wheelchair Rugby League (QLD WRL) is the official governing body for wheelchair rugby league in Queensland. As an incorporated entity, QLD WRL oversees the introduction, management, and growth of the sport across the state.

Since its establishment in 2015, following the inaugural Wheelchair Rugby League Interstate Challenge, QLD WRL has played a vital role in fostering the development of wheelchair rugby league. The sport continues to thrive with regional NRL Wheelchair competitions and development days held throughout Queensland, promoting inclusivity and community participation.

QLDWRL Sub Branches

Queensland Wheelchair Rugby League has developed competitions within three region sub-branches. Each sub-branch is an incorporated entity:

  • Central Queensland Wheelchair Rugby League Inc.
  • North Queensland Wheelchair Rugby League Inc.
  • South-East Queensland Wheelchair Rugby League Inc.

Each sub-branch is responsible for building and running local competitions. These local competitions provide grassroots and development opportunities for new and existing players and are the first step toward representative wheelchair rugby league.
