As the season is now well underway it’s a good time to remind all participants that they are subject to the NRL Code of Conduct at all fixtures.

I would like to remind all accredited team officials who sit on interchange benches that your co-operation with the Ground Manager is expected. Anyone who continues with behaviour in breach of the Code of Conduct will be asked to leave the area and may face further sanctions.

Please assist us making the game day experience a positive one for all of our participants.

A reminder that a CJRL open age representative team will take on Penrith JRL next Saturday 8 June at Sutherland Oval in the inaugural Luke Lewis Cup. Get along if you can and support our boys as they represent the district with pride. The match kicks off at 3pm.

There are no NSWRL Conference Competition or CJRL Competition fixtures scheduled on the long weekend, so take this opportunity to celebrate the return of Open Age Representative Rugby League and support our Sharks!

Team Liaison Officer

 Each team must provide a “Team Liaison Officer” (TLO) who will act as a contact point for the Ground Manager during fixtures at CJRL venues. Should supporters /spectators from either club behave in a manner that would previously been dealt with by the Ground Manager, from this point the Ground Manager will engage the relevant Team Liaison Officer to address this issue with the spectators involved.

 The Ground Manager at each venue will hold two Hi-Vis Pink vests that each Team Liaison Officer will be required to wear during the course of the match so they can be easily identified. The TLO is to make themselves known to the Ground Manager prior to the start of the match, and names of each TLO recorded on match sheets.

 The Team Liaison Officer will be required to remain near the bench area for his or her team during the match, but remain outside the roped/fenced playing area.

 Ground Managers and Team Liaison Officers shall not be permitted to drink alcohol prior to or whilst acting in these roles.

 The Team Liaison Officer will be required to assist in resolving any situation that may occur relating to their teams’ spectators/supporters. ie: trying to calm the situation down before it escalates.

 The Team Liaison Officer will work with and assist the Ground Manager. The Ground Manager still has the responsibility of maintaining control of spectators, interchange bench areas, and liaising with match officials, this is not the role of the Team Liaison Officer.

 At the end of the match the Hi-Vis Pink vest is to be handed back to the Ground Manager (not left on the interchange bench or on the ground).

 The Team Liaison Officer (as per the Ground Manager) should be a person capable of maintaining a calm demeanour and be a minimum of 18 years of age. Ideally the TLO would be someone closely aligned with the team but cannot be carrying out an accredited match day role (coach, trainer etc).

NO MATCH IS TO COMMENCE WITHOUT EACH TEAM LIAISON OFFICER BEING IN PLACE ALONG WITH THE GROUND MANAGER.

Club News

Following their win over Bosco on Saturday, Joeys celebrated their 60th anniversary with special guests including Bulldogs coach Cameron Ciraldo (Joeys junior) and Miranda State MP Eleni Petinos, along with club juniors who have gone on to play NRL including current captain Daniel Vasquez, Keiran Kerr, and Kitione Kautoga

The club started with 2 teams in 1964, the under 8s and the under 9s, with funding provided by Como Jamali JRLFC and St George club. Initially led by the nuns of St Joseph’s Primary school and based at Scylla Bay Oval with Como, it wasn’t until 1969 that the Club moved to Kareela Oval.

Joeys remined a junior club up until 1993, when the U13s progressed into the U14s of the international grades for the first time, leading the way for the club to field sides across both junior and senior competitions. It wasn’t until 2000 when Joeys won their first international age competition (the U16As, which included Cameron Ciraldo and Chris Kerr from our O35 leaguetag team). The club finally tasted major success at senior levels when they won the 2023 A-Grade competition by defeating Gymea 22-6.
