London RL - Rugby League in London and the South
Masters

An unknown source once said, ‘’we do not stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.’’ And it is fair to say rugby league has been a young man sport. Until now...

Masters Rugby League started in New Zealand in 1992, progressing to Australia in quick pursuit and in recent years emigrating to the UK. Masters Rugby League is a social version of the game engaging those over the age of 35. The rules are slightly modified to cater for the older gentleman, but with the man rules being no winners, no champions and no cup finals. The most important of rules being that you buy your opposite number a drink. 

Different short colours apply to adhere to the player’s age bands, with modified contact per age group.
