This weekend will see the New South Wales Rugby League conducting the Harold Matthews Cup competition in the Illawarra district. Nineteen (19) teams from throughout NSW and one (1) from Victoria will participate in over 50 matches during the weekend. Venues for matches will be Reed Park Dapto and Sid Parish Park Figtree.
Teams representing all the metropolitan clubs plus teams from Canberra, Maitland, Central Coast, Groups 2, 7 & 18 and Victoria will be competing to be the 2003 Harold Matthews Cup Champions. This equates to over 1000 players, officials, support staff parents and supporters all descending on the Illawarra district for the weekend.
The Harold Matthews Cup is an under 15 years competition and is the first run of the NSWRL Junior Representative program. Over the years this competition has been the starting point for many of the games top players.
This year the format will see 4 pools of 5 teams playing off on Saturday with the Plate and main draw semis played on Sunday. The winners of the Main draw semi finals will then play off the following weekend (Sunday 21st) at Aussie Stadium as part of the pre game entertainment to the NRL Semi Finals series matches.
The NSWRL would like to thank the people of the Illawarra especially the Illawarra Rugby League, Dapto JRL and Wests Illawarra JRL for their support in the conducting of this year's competition. A lot of hard work by a great many volunteers has gone into the preparation for this weekend's competition.

To all our Illawarra based Saints fans, it'd be great if you could get out to Reed Park in Dapto & support the boys - they are the NRL players of the future...
