NORTHERN SUBURBS RUGBY LEAGUE FOOTBALL CLUB
Northern Suburbs Rugby League Football Club is one of the oldest Rugby League Clubs in Australia.  The Rugby League Club has had great success over many years including 10 years as a Melbourne Storm feeder club from 1998 to 2007 and with the Brisbane Broncos from 2008 to now. One of the more recent Ruby League highlights was the 2007 ANZAC Test when no less than ten of the Games Representatives came through the Norths Devils Rugby League Program.   In the 1990s, along with many other Queensland clubs, Norths suffered heavily financially. Eventually it came to the stage that in 1998 they became a  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feeder_club  feeder club with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Rugby_League National Rugby League newcomers, the  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melbourne_Storm Melbourne Storm, which attracted much needed finance, as well as some quality players. 

NORTHERN SUBURBS JUNIOR RUGBY LEAGUE FOOTBALL CLUB
From humble beginnings at Oxenham Park, Nundah in 1935 fielding teams only in the Under 16's, 17's & 18's, Northern Suburbs Junior Rugby League Club grew to incorporate all grades by 1965 when the competition was increased to include players from 7 years upwards. Run entirely by volunteers, Norths Juniors have grown solid in numbers and enduring in ability, with our fair share of Premierships including the Under 16's thrilling win at Suncorp Stadium in 2004. Norths have also produced many representative players for Schoolboy, Brisbane and Queensland teams, including Rothmans Medal winners Daryl Brohman and Neville Draper. We have also produced three Australian players in Nick Gieger, Trevor Gilmeister and Greg Conescue. Norths Juniors continues to offer children who have the love and commitment to Rugby League, the opportunity to rise through the ranks to Mixwell Colts, Queensland Cup, and through our affiliation with the Melbourne Storm follow the footsteps of Billy Slater, Matt King and Cameron Smith into the NRL.
