Parramatta Junior Rugby League

Parramatta Junior Rugby League formed in 1946, when, as a result of expanding urban sprawl an influx of residents flocked to the immediate Parramatta area, this caused a compacted competition to be formed and the Western Districts and Southern Districts competitions were revamped. In its fledgling years the competitions took in teams from far a drift as Liverpool and St Mary's and just about every town on the Cumberland plateau. In the forties, fifties and sixties rugby league was perceived as the game of the working class man, it went hand in hand with the growing status of the "Westies" from the suburbs.
