About The Entrance Tigers

Club History

With around 500 players The Entrance JRLFC is one of the largest and most successful junior rugby league clubs on the Central Coast. However, we were not always such a prominent club, and in fact, came from very humble beginnings. For many years from the early 1900’s up until around the 1970’s the region known as The Entrance District included the suburbs of The Entrance, Long Jetty, Bateau Bay, Killarney Vale and Tumbi. As a result, some of the older or historical organisations are named after the district rather

than the suburb they now inhabit. This is the case with The Tigers. The club began as The Entrance Junior Schoolboys Rugby League Football Club in 1962 with just a handful of teams. The name was not changed to The Entrance Junior RLFC until 1977. For many years the club’s home ground was Taylor Park at the Entrance, however in 1980 both the Junior and Senior clubs moved to EDSACC South, our current home ground. We are proud of our history and look forward to growing more as a club in the future.
